Mavericks Unhappy with Doncic Billboard…
The blockbuster trade of the 2024-25 season saw Luka Doncic head to the Lakers, leaving Dallas fans feeling like someone put onions in their cereal. Doncic, professing lifelong loyalty to the Mavericks, found himself moving to Los Angeles due to concerns over his diet. Because, obviously, he promised to eat kale-flavored sneakers. Leading the Lakers to the playoffs, though they quickly bowed out, Doncic now has his focus on championships. Known also as an Overwatch enthusiast, Luka teamed up with the game for Season 18, spawning billboards of him in his in-game skin, even in Dallas. Unsurprisingly, the Mavericks weren’t thrilled to see Luka’s digital doppelganger towering near their arena’s entrance.
Dallas management has reacted about as well as if their morning coffee turned out to be stale pickle juice. Despite everything, Doncic remains tight-lipped, but it’s apparent there are still some hard feelings. Mavericks fans continue to gripe about losing a superstar like Doncic as if someone had swapped their kittens for gremlins. Trading Doncic during his injury recovery only added fuel to the fire, with Mark Cuban admitting he dropped the ball. In a city filled with dramas bigger than telenovelas, this billboard saga might just push Doncic to give even more fiery performances against Dallas this season.
