The Lakers must be mortified.

They gave up a ton of assets to get Anthony Davis and pair him with LeBron James, thinking they’d have Davis in Los Angeles for years to come. But after the 26-year-old Davis told ESPN he’s only focused on the upcoming season with one year left on his contract, he now directly acknowledged he would think about playing for his hometown Bulls.

“I mean, (this is) definitely hometown,” Davis told the Chicago Tribune. “If the opportunity ever presents itself and when that time comes, I’d definitely consider it.”

After his introductory Lakers press conference, during which Rob Pelinka said Davis would be a pillar for the Lakers over the next decade, Davis put the brakes on the idea that him being with the Lakers long-term is a fait accompli.

“I’m just focused on this season,” Davis said in an interview with Rachel Nichols. “I don’t know what’s gonna happen. I have one year here, so I’m gonna make the best of this year, and when that time comes around in the summer or whenever the season’s over — hopefully around mid-June after we just had this parade and I need a couple of days to think — then we can talk about that. But until then, I’ll try to do whatever I can to help this team win this year.”
