Anthony Davis Finally Unloads $32M Bel Air Estate After Year-Long Wait

When you’ve been traded twice in eighteen months, holding onto a $40 million Los Angeles mansion starts to feel like dead weight. That’s the reality Anthony Davis faced as the Washington Wizards big man watched his lavish Bel Air Crest property sit on the market for roughly a year before finally closing on Thursday for $32 million—an $8 million haircut from his asking price, but a relief nonetheless.

The 7-footer’s real estate odyssey mirrors his wild ride through the NBA. After the Los Angeles Lakers traded him to Dallas in February 2025 for Luka Dončić, Davis had less reason to maintain a West Coast palace. Then came another trade in February 2026, this time to Washington, making the LA investment feel even more disconnected from his current life on the East Coast. Sometimes the best move an athlete can make is admitting when a chapter needs to close.

What made this property worth the asking price—and why someone eventually bit—tells you everything about superstar real estate in Los Angeles. The 8-bedroom, 17,254-square-foot estate wasn’t just a house; it was a resort unto itself. An elevator, theater, game room, wet bar, wine cellar, home gym, barber shop, tennis court, cabanas, outdoor chef’s kitchen, batting cage, and Olympic-sized swimming pool. This wasn’t a place to live; it was a lifestyle business for someone with unlimited resources.

The deal closed thanks to Jordan Cohen of RE/MAX ONE and Jacob Dadon of Carolwood Estates, who found the right buyer willing to take on a property that demanded serious commitment and deep pockets. For Davis, it’s another step toward fully settling into his Washington future. The house might be behind him, but the new owner gets to inherit every amenity that comes with living like an NBA champion in one of the world’s most coveted zip codes.

The real question isn’t whether this home sold eventually—it always does when the price finds its level. It’s what Davis does with the next chapter now that his Los Angeles ties are truly severed.
