Mavs’ Embarrassing Trade Gets Airline Jabs…
In a saga crazier than a reality TV show, it’s been over a month since the Dallas Mavericks shipped basketball wizard Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers, leaving people scratching their heads harder than a dog with a flea. And just when you thought it couldn’t get any more awkward, Southwest Airlines decided to wing it on social media, roasting the Mavs while unveiling their new baggage policy.
Yearning for the days when checked bags didn’t cost an arm and a leg, Southwest had no problem poking fun at their fellow Dallasites. Some whiz kid in the marketing department must be throwing tantrums over this basketball blunder, because Mavericks fans are still fuming. Doncic, however, is basking in California sunshine and settling into his Lakers jersey like it’s a pair of well-worn sneakers.
Meanwhile, up north, Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards is playing detective, sleuthing Doncic’s moves on the court to crack the code of double teams. “It’s like mastering a new video game level,” Edwards confesses, glued to Doncic’s highlight reels. But honestly, can anyone really blame him? Luka’s strategy is legendary, even if the Mavericks think trading him was genius. Spoiler alert: it wasn’t.
