NBA trade deadline has passed and one thing is certain: the Lakers came out on top. The Lakers pulled off one of the most jaw-dropping moves in recent memory by acquiring Luka Doncic from the Dallas Mavericks.

The Lakers’ acquisition of Luka Doncic was the biggest move of the week, even if plenty of other teams were also able to improve.

Christie and nine-time All-Star Anthony Davis were sent to Dallas in a blockbuster trade on Sunday that featured the Lakers landing Luka Doncic. Shipping out the franchise’s cornerstone player led to the Mavericks (26-25) being criticized for the deal but Christie adjusted well on the fly while Davis didn’t play on Tuesday due to injury.

Dallas Mavericks star Kyrie Irving says he is in the “grieving process” after the shock news over the weekend that the team had traded Luka Dončić to the Los Angeles Lakers.

A straight-faced Luka Dončić walked side-by-side next to a smiling Rob Pelinka as they took the podium at the Lakers' practice facility Tuesday morning, less than 72 hours after one of the biggest trades in sports history upended two franchises by sending Dončić to the Los Angeles Lakers and Anthony Davis to the Dallas Mavericks.
