Many were puzzled by what Dallas received in sending its generational superstar to Los Angeles, including longtime NBA executives.

If there's any ill will from Anthony Davis over his trade from the Los Angeles Lakers to the Dallas Mavericks, he's not saying so in public. Davis addressed the blockbuster trade publicly on Monday for the first time since it was reported Saturday night that he was being dealt to the Mavericks in exchange for All-NBA guard Luka Dončić.

The Dallas Mavericks blew the collective minds of NBA fans around the world when they traded Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday just after midnight. The announcement is one that instantly shakes up the league in the middle of the regular season as Doncic teams up with Lebron James while Anthony Davis slides in alongside Kyrie Irving.
