Luka DonCIC led Dallas to the NBA Final last season. Anthony Davis has won a championship with Los Angeles Lakers.
They have now switched the team with an absolute huge hit.
Donsic is traded with Los Angeles Rakeers by Marvelix, the champion of the Western Conference, for Davis. The transaction was announced on Sunday morning after the team obtained the approval of the league under all conditions related to transactions.
DonCIC, Maxi Kleber, Markieff Morris go to Lakers, and Davis and Max Christie go to Dallas.
Utajaz has also been involved in this contract and has won two draft picks with Jalen Hood-Schifino. This year, one from Lakers and one from MAVS is a round rounder.
The trade news broke about an hour after Lakers broke New York in Madison Square Garden. Davis was not with Lakers for the game. He returned to Los Angeles for abdominal injury, which requires evaluation.

Donsic has not been playing in Dallas since Christmas. This trade may be a serious price for DonCIC, which cannot sign a five -year Supermax contract extension this summer.
It was not clear whether MAVS provided such a large -scale transaction. DonCIC has an option to leave as a free agent after the 2025 to 26 years, and plans a scenario with the hope that other teams will land Slovenia stars. That’s true.
“We feel that we are ahead of the turbulent summer. He is qualified as Supermax and can opt out the contract one year away from him,” said the news. “So we really felt like we came out before that. We know the team, they have it there, the team tries to sign him when it becomes available I have loaded it.
DonCIC is still an extension this summer, and Lakers can be able to take about $ 230 million for five years, and is $ 115 million from the one with Supermax.
At least, the contract combines Los Angeles as a new 1-2 punch of Los Angeles with LeBron James and Dongsich, and Davis forms a new star duo in Dallas. He reunites with his former teammate, Lakers, JJ Lady’s coach JJ Lady.
DonCIC was one of the Mavericks players on the floor when Redick finally came out of the game on May 11, 2021.
On a Saturday night, one game was still being played in the NBA, where the report that it was a phenic sportland began to swirl. Sandsgard’s Devin booker said that someone on the stand told his teammates to his teammates.
“They said Luka. I said,” Luka Galza? ” See the Minnesota Center.
Booker was not trying to make it interesting. He thought that many probably thought -Mavs had no way to move DonCIC.
“It’s crazy, a man. I don’t really know what to say about it,” Booker said. “Luka is inevitable, and cannot be traded. NBA will show you again. It is unpredictable. It is a business. They are always talking about you. So don’t think you’re safer than you.
Added Kevin Durant, a fellow Sands star. It’s crazy. Crazy. Damn it would not have thought that Luka Dongsich would be traded. In the midst of his age, the NBA is a wild place. If he can do business, he’s standing up to get someone. “
And when the news hit, the social media was shocked immediately.
“Luca traded from Dallas has to talk deeper behind it,” says Cleveland Center Tristantpson: “This does not happen on a random Saturday night.”
“What should I wait?” During the off -season that includes the NBA playoffs, I posted Patrick Mahomes, a quarter back of Starkanzas City, sometimes sitting on the coat side in a MAVS game.
Nicks’s guard Jalen Branson thought it was a joke in another post. He asked.
Obviously not.
Dallas plays on Cleveland on Sunday, and Lakers will take a rest until they visit Los Angeles Scrippers on Tuesday night. It is not clear when DonCIC and Davis can play in new clubs.
Among the 400 -game players, the average of DonCIC’s 28.6 points is third in the NBA history behind only Michael Jordan and Wilt Chamberlain, both of which are 30.1. When he is healthy, he is usually somewhere that cannot be stopped dynamically.
He set 33.9 points, 9.8 assists, and 9.2 rebounds for each game with MVP voting last season. This is one of the largest statistics season in the league history. In the second half of this month, Donsic, who called James “idol”, played 73 points with Atlanta on January 26, 2024, scoring the fourth highest in the NBA game. Only Chamberlain (100), Kobe Bryant (81), and Chamberlain (78) have scored further.
Davis, the 10th All -Star Pick in this year’s career, will be 32 years old next month. He was a member of the 75th anniversary of the NBA, and in 2020 helped the Lakers to win the NBA title in the bubble.
DonCIC is an average of 28.1 points, 8.3 rebounds, and 7.8 assists this season. Davis is an average of 25.7 points and 11.9 rebounds.
