The Dallas Mavericks agreed to a blockbuster trade with the Los Angeles Lakers on Saturday to acquire All-NBA forward-center Anthony Davis in exchange for All-NBA guard Luka Dončić. The stunning trade shakes up the Western Conference playoff picture and adds new dimensions to the Mavericks’ roster.

Or perhaps the Mavericks stand pat after the Doncic trade. When Harrison acquired Irving and Markieff Morris from the Brooklyn Nets the Sunday before the Thursday trade deadline in 2023, the team suggested it wasn’t finished, but made no additional moves.

The Dallas Mavericks sent Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers in arguably the most shocking trade in NBA history on Saturday night/Sunday morning, getting Anthony Davis, Max Christie, and a 2029 Lakers first-round pick in return.
