From Dallas darling to LA leader
Luka Doncic admitted he was stunned when the Mavericks traded him to the Lakers, saying he didn’t know how to react or what to say. Fans in Dallas still cheered him on his return, and LA supporters have quickly embraced their new star.
Now leading the Lakers into 2025-26, Doncic has one clear goal: another championship. The only thing more shocking than his trade would be if he showed up in purple and gold but accidentally shouted ‘Go Mavs!’ at tip-off.
