“Never had a player come to the Lakers & be as sad” – Longtime Lakers owner Jeanie Buss reveals Luka Doncic embracing LA after initial discomfort



The Luka Doncic trade to the LA Lakers for Anthony Davis in early February shocked the basketball world. NBA insider Shams Charania, who broke the news, reported that Doncic was “stunned” when informed about the deal. Charania added that the agreement happened in the “shadows,” a strategy that highlighted the secrecy.

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.”
