DAMNNN ITS REAL. AD is an aamzing defender (top 3 in the nba), but offensively, he isnt what he used to be. BUT IDK... I WOULDNT HAVE TRADED HIM FOR ANYONE OTHER THAN JOKIC, DONCIC, GIANNIS, OR SGA... DAMN THIS F****NG HURTS, BUT WERE ALSO GETTING DONCIC... SO, YOLO?

Almost certainly fake. Poor formatting on the tweet and no prepared graphic. He wouldn't say "Yes, this is real."

Come on, y'all. :lol:

Lol this is such BS. Not sure if Shams got hacked or what, but even if he appeared live on ESPN to deliver this news I still would legitimately not believe him.

0% chance this is real. But if it is, the entire Mavericks franchise needs to be relegated to the NCAA

EDIT: Remove Dallas from the league NOW. WHAT THE ACTUAL ****?

If real this is the worst star player return I have ever seen. How do you have Luka and you dont get a billion picks or young studs?
What an absolute failure and disaster this franchise is, ran by one of the most incompetent front offices in the league.

This is just wild. How did the Lakers pull this off?
Tom Gores' Securus faced a class action lawsuit in 2024. The company engaged in a "quid pro quo kickback scheme" with county jails in Michigan which banned in-person visits in order to maximize revenue from voice and video calls.

If that's real, it means Doncic requested a trade behind the curtains or/and it was pretty bad down there, we just didn't know.

Yea, no way Luka's value is just an aging AD and a single FRP.
Something is wrong here, maybe indeed Shams was hacked. Or drunk
