Dallas Mavericks minority owner Mark Cuban was just as shocked as the rest of the world when Luka Doncic was traded to the Los Angeles Lakers in exchange for Anthony Davis late Saturday night.

Cuban, who sold his majority stake in 2023, previously said how he wasn't involved in the trade, and he confirmed to Front Office Sports that he didn't know the trade was happening, but he did receive a call “just before it was announced.”
