Luka Dončić thought he would spend his entire NBA career with the Dallas Mavericks, and though he was shocked when the Mavericks traded him to the Los Angeles Lakers for Anthony Davis, he is already embracing his new city.
For Dončić, that has started with greeting the fans and taking on a role in his new community. On the day of his Lakers' debut, Dončić announced that his foundation was pledging $500,000 to aid recovery efforts from the fires that burned thousands of acres, buildings, and affected up to hundreds of thousands of people across multiple parts of Los Angeles County.
