“I had to check if it was April 1. I didn’t really believe it.” Luka Doncic was as shocked as everyone else when he found out the Mavs traded him. Obviously, it was an emotional moment for him because Dallas has been his home for seven years. But once the reality sunk in, the Slovenian Sensation realized what an amazing opportunity it was wearing the Purple and Gold, “I get to play in the greatest club in the world, and I’m excited for this new journey.” And Luka made his presence felt during tonight’s Clippers clash by sharing a first of many moments with LeBron and Bronny James.
Yes, Doncic joined his new teammates on the sidelines at Intuit Dome. Of course, he was not there to play, as he is still recovering from the left calf strain that he suffered on Christmas Day. But him dressed in all black Lakers track suit truly felt like the dawn of a new era for the LA franchise. And guess who he was sitting next to? Well, it was none other than Bronny and LBJ! Sure, Laker Nation will get used to this sighting in some time. But LeBron, Bronny, and Luka sitting together on the bench felt almost AI generated for the first time.
Moreover, Doncic looked highly impressed watching his new team in action, especially when Jaxson Hayes threw down a nasty dunk in the first quarter. Luka couldn’t help but clap and smile at the play with a shocked look on his face.
LUKA LOVES WHAT HE SEES
