Luka Doncic Joins Los Angeles Lakers in Blockbuster Trade

The 25-year-old NBA star moves from Dallas to Los Angeles, teaming up with LeBron James in pursuit of a championship.

Luka Doncic was traded from the Dallas Mavericks to the Los Angeles Lakers in exchange for Anthony Davis in a surprising deal announced three days ago.
Doncic expressed mixed emotions, describing the move as shocking but calling the opportunity to play alongside LeBron James a 'dream come true.'
During his introductory press conference, Doncic emphasized his goal of winning an NBA championship with the Lakers and dismissed concerns about his physical condition as unfounded.
Anthony Davis, now with the Dallas Mavericks, reflected on his six years with the Lakers, calling the trade 'just business' and expressing gratitude for his time in Los Angeles.
Lakers General Manager Rob Pelinka described the acquisition of Doncic as a 'seismic event' for the franchise, highlighting the 25-year-old's elite skills and potential to elevate the team.
