Luka Dončić isn't a fan of the way Dallas Mavericks general manager Nico Harrison has addressed his surprising trade to the Los Angeles Lakers. "It’s just sad the way he’s talking right now," Dončić told ESPN's Malika Andrews. "I never said anything bad about him and I just want to move on."

Luka Doncic has infused the Los Angeles Lakers and their fans with new life and passion, and he has suddenly given the team a real shot to win this year's NBA championship. In 28 regular-season games with the Lakers, he put up 28.2 points, 8.1 rebounds and 7.5 assists a game and hit 37.9% of his 9.6 3-point attempts a game.
