Former Los Angeles Lakers star and current Dallas Mavericks player Anthony Davis is saying adios to his luxurious Bel-Air mansion, with a price tag almost as grandiose as his basketball career. The estate hit the market with a listing price of $39,900,000, a figure that reflects both its size and its opulent amenities. The news, first reported on by KTLA, comes six months following Davis's headline-grabbing trade to the Mavericks.
Located on Stratford Circle in the exclusive Bel-Air neighborhood, the sprawling property is a home-court advantage any NBA star—or anyone with the bank account to match—would hoop and holler for. It features eight bedrooms, 12 bathrooms, and luxury amenities including a tennis court and an Olympic-sized pool. Despite his recent move, finding a new residence in Dallas has been a challenge for the NBA champ. "The only thing I'm not happy about is that I can't a damn house in Dallas," Davis lamented in an interview cited by FOX 11.
What makes this house a true standout, as noted by TMZ, is its array of impressive features. Prospective buyers will find an elevator, home theater, and even a wellness center complete with a plunge tub and sauna. For the complete layup, there's a game room with a wet bar and wine cellar, and a barber shop for those looking for a quick trim without leaving home comfort. Furthermore, those inclined to the culinary arts will appreciate the outdoor chef's kitchen.
But the extravagance doesn't stop inside the four walls. The estate's outdoor space stands as a testament to luxury living, with cabanas, a lighted tennis court, and multiple fire pits and covered patios perfect for any social gathering. "Jordan Cohen of RE/MAX ONE holds the listing," as per TMZ. The palace unnecessary in Texas also features a custom-built children's playhouse with its own HVAC system—a miniature mansion mirroring the grandiosity of the main abode.
The home's appearance on the market correlates with Davis's move following the surprising trade from the Lakers, where he notably won the 2020 NBA championship alongside LeBron James. The estate's sale is a financial slam dunk for Davis, who originally purchased it for some $31 million—a figure not far from a full season's salary according to KTLA reports. It marks the end of an era for Davis in L.A., and the beginning of his next phase in Dallas—if he can just find that elusive new home court.
