In case you’re an ‘early to bed early to rise’ person, the NBA landscape has just turned upside down in your sleep. Pinch yourself, the Lakers have traded Anthony Davis. Pinch yourself again because Luka Doncic is now purple and gold. One would think how on earth LeBron let his best bud AD go. But the thing is, LeBron never knew about it. He was just as shocked about it as the rest of the world and now his true feelings over it have emerged.
Playing with Luka Doncic is a no-brainer for any player in the league. The future MVP of the league is in his prime years and pairing him with LeBron James is something out of story books. That’s the same feeling for LeBron as well. Brian Windhorst on Sportscenter revealed that playing with Luka Doncic is something he dreamed about. “LeBron has dreamed about playing with Luka Doncic for years. This is something he never thought, but he badly, badly wanted,” the insider said.
LeBron’s fascination with the Slovenian is a long-standing feeling. “When Luka was deciding where he was going to go within Nike, LeBron pressed him very hard to come to his shoe brand within Nike. He ended up going with the Jordan brand, but he was trying to recruit him then. Then, he saw a vision of the two of them playing together,” Windy added. Now finally, the opportunity is in the grasp of the King.
This is a developing story…
