From Dallas darling to LA leader
Luka Doncic admitted he was stunned when the Dallas Mavericks traded him to the Los Angeles Lakers, saying he didn’t know how to react or what to say. Fans in both cities kept cheering him, showing their respect.
Now fully settled in LA, Doncic aims to lead the Lakers to titles starting in 2025–26. The move was so surprising, it felt like waking up to find your GPS rerouted you from Dallas straight onto Hollywood Boulevard.
