According to ESPN’s Tim McMahon, Luka Doncic consistently highlights the Lakers' leadership in a calculated way.

The Los Angeles Lakers pulled off the trade of the century when they were able to acquire Luka Doncic from the Dallas Mavericks. It was a trade that surprised everyone in the NBA. Mavericks fans, former Mavericks players, and everyone else in the league were shocked. No one could believe that Dallas would part ways with their franchise player.

The Miami Heat are very much looking forward to the 2025-2026 NBA season. The franchise is looking to build off its first-round playoff exit from this past year and instead build back up to the dynasty it once was.

Luka Doncic was visibly frustrated with himself after the Lakers star missed a rebound opportunity in EuroBasket against Great Britain.

Anthony Edwards continues to ascend in the NBA and finished 7th in MVP voting each of the last two years, Jalen Brunson finished 5th years and 10th last year, and Jayson Tatum will be a threat once he returns from Achilles surgery, but he's out for this year.

Los Angeles Lakers superstar guard Luka Doncic signed an extension to stay with the team, but his sights are set on Los Angeles' future.

While signing autographs, a Lithuanian kid handed him a 20-euro bill for a signature. Luka Doncic pretended to slip the cash into his pocket.
