NEW YORK — Just one hour after picking up one of their biggest wins of the season, the Lakers reportedly made a far bigger move off the court with one of the most shocking trades in NBA history.
The Lakers are acquiring five-time All-Star Luka Dončić in a trade that sends nine-time All-Star big man Anthony Davis to the Dallas Mavericks, a source with knowledge of the situation confirmed to the Southern California News Group on Saturday night.
ESPN’s Shams Charania was the first to report the trade, just an hour after the Lakers beat the New York Knicks at Madison Square Garden.
The details of the trade, according to Charania:
The Lakers acquired Doncic, Maxi Kleber, Markieff Morris;
The Mavericks acquired Davis, Max Christie, Lakers’ 2029 first-round pick;
The Utah Jazz acquired: Jalen Hood-Schifino, Clippers’ 2025 second-round pick, Mavericks’ 2025 second-round pick.
