Luka Dončić’s father has lashed out at the Dallas Mavericks after the blockbuster trade that sent his son to the Los Angeles Lakers. NBA fans were shocked over the weekend when news emerged of the trade that will send the 25-year-old to the Lakers, with Anthony Davis moving in the other direction to the Mavericks. The trade came amid great secrecy with Dončić, Davis and even Lakers superstar LeBron James all reportedly in the dark about the move until news broke over the weekend. Reports have since indicated the Mavericks were unhappy with Dončić’s commitment to conditioning and his physical fitness. Dallas general manager Nico Harrison has said Dončić’s upcoming contract negotiations, as well as Davis’s superior defense also contributed to the trade.
