LUKA Doncic is now a Los Angeles Laker after a blockbuster deal that sends Anthony Davis to the Dallas Mavericks.
The Slovenian superstar will now be the new running mate of LeBron James following a trade reported by ESPN's Shams Charania that shocked just about everybody on Sunday (Philippine time).
Doncic is currently dealing with a calf injury that has kept him out of action since Christmas last year. Once he returns, he will join James and the Lakers who stand fifth in the Western Conference with a 28-19 record.
Davis, on the other hand, heads to 26-23 Dallas to link up with Kyrie Irving.
Los Angeles is also sending a 2029 first-round pick and Max Christie to Dallas, while receiving Maxi Kleber and Markieff Morris.
True or false?
The mega-trade was such a stunner that social media was abuzz about Charania getting possibly hacked.
The ESPN reporter, however, quickly retorted that "Yes, this is real."
Not long after, several media outlets confirmed Charania's breaking news.
