From shock trade to MVP talk
When the Mavericks traded Luka Doncic to the Lakers for Anthony Davis, Max Christie and a first-round pick, the NBA was stunned — even Commissioner Adam Silver had to weigh in. He admired how Luka handled the setback, calling it a rare professional challenge.
Doncic responded by training hard, leading Slovenia at EuroBasket, and signing a Lakers extension. Now he’s even tipped for MVP chatter. The twist? Dallas fans are still looking at their phones like it was an accidental Amazon order gone wrong.
