At this point, it is no secret that Luka Doncic wanted to both start and finish his career with the Dallas Mavericks; in fact, he was so upset he had been traded to the Los Angeles Lakers in February that he threw his phone when he heard the news, as was revealed in an interview with ESPN's Malika Andrews on Friday.
Such a reaction was not meant to be a knock on the Lakers, mind you; Doncic just really loved Dallas, and he hoped to stay with the team long term. But things have now changed. And it would seem that Luka, following a stellar regular season debut with L.A., would like to stick around La La Land for the foreseeable future.
