Dallas Mavericks fans' hearts all broke at once late into the night on February 1 when Luka Doncic was blindsided and traded to the Los Angeles Lakers for Anthony Davis. Mavericks fans thought that they'd never see Doncic wear another team's jersey after spending the first six and a half seasons of his career in Big D, and things got even more real over the weekend as Doncic inked a three-year extension with the Lakers.
It was expected that Doncic was going to remain in Los Angeles, as he is already showing the Lakers the same loyalty that he had given to Dallas ever since he was an 18-year-old teenager who had just moved to the United States, and Doncic's camp just dropped a message (subscription required) that every Mavs fan wished they had never heard.
