Jeanie Buss, the Lakers’ former longtime controlling owner, opened up about the shocking trade Friday on Slovenian radio:
“Nobody knew. It was a secret. Nobody knew the trade was gonna happen. I knew, but [Doncic] didn’t know. I’ve never had a player come to the Lakers and be as sad as he was because the trade was a huge surprise to him.”
