Lakers star turns shock trade into motivation
Luka Doncic was stunned when Dallas traded him to the Lakers for Anthony Davis, Max Christie and a first-round pick at the 2025 deadline. Adam Silver later praised Luka’s honesty, saying he never sugarcoated his disappointment and grew stronger from it.
Doncic spent summer in peak shape, shined for Slovenia at EuroBasket and extended with L.A. Fans now see him as an MVP favourite—proof that sometimes the biggest setback makes you bounce higher… kind of like a basketball that refuses to listen to gravity.
