Mavericks CEO Rick Welts was shockingly kept in dark about the seismic Luka Doncic trade



The Dallas Mavericks have been nearly three months removed since trading their franchise superstar Luka Dončić to the LA Lakers for Anthony Davis and other players. Mavericks CEO Rick Welts has finally addressed his involvement in the deal.

At Wall Street Journal’s The Future of Everything event on Wednesday, Welts said that he received the news one hour before everyone else did on February 1st, after a call from team owner Patrick Dumont. He was so shocked that he thought it was not Dumont on the other end of the call.

“I’m wide awake in bed… About 90 minutes before that I got a call from Patrick Dumont… ‘Hey Rick, hey we’re gonna make a trade,'” Welts recalled.
