The Lakers are holding an introductory press conference on Tuesday to welcome Luka to the franchise, per @TheSteinLine
Golden State is desperately trying to find a superstar player to pair with Steph, per @ShamsCharania "The Warriors are legitimately calling about every all star player. They are dead set on trying to find another superstar player with Steph Curry.”
“Luka Doncic just bought a $15M house, just closed like last week in Dallas. Apparently he cried when he found out." — @ChandlerParsons
Chandler Parsons texted Mark Cuban about the Luka/AD trade: "I texted (Mark Cuban), and I said, 'I'm so confused.' He wrote back, 'That makes two of us.’"
A few NBA teams have adjusted their flight itineraries so they wouldn’t be in the air during the Feb 6 trade deadline, per @ChrisBHaynes This is to “avoid awkward flights” 🤣
Front page of the Dallas Morning Newspaper: “Luka was ours” 💔
Shams Charania: “The Mavericks are making a bet against his body... I am told that there has been some level of friction between Doncic and the team's medical performance staff over the last year or so.” (via @ESPNNBA)
Luka Doncic’s father sounds off on the trade 🗣️ “I understand there comes a moment when you disagree with a certain philosophy. But I think this secrecy from some individuals, the hypocrisy, hurts me personally. Luka absolutely doesn’t deserve this.”
