Luka Doncic was nearly asleep last Saturday night in Dallas when his phone buzzed. Only then did he learn that the Mavericks had just stunned the sports world by trading him to the Los Angeles Lakers.

I think he’s the player for the big scene, even though I thought in Dallas, he had something special going,” Jokic said.

The Dallas Mavericks sent the NBA into a frenzy when they traded the megastar Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers for a return including Anthony Davis. Some have already called it the most shocking trade in NBA history, and it also has some players on their toes.
