Even Trae Young went there from his little comment which says a lot.<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span id=\"more-569898\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Luka Doncic is ready to turn the page with the Lakers now, he who focuses on the upcoming playoffs with his new team. This Wednesday evening meeting against Dallas was not easy to manage for him emotionally, especially when the Mavs dropped a video tribute for the Slovenian, retracing his best moments since his arrival.<\/p>\n<p>A little hypocritical we can say, especially given how the leaders have tackled the player since his departure, calling into question his behavior, his attitude or his lifestyle. But it is a ritual and it was important for everyone, even Donic, very affected. He quickly melted into tears when you see it all.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">Trae Young is positioned in the soap opera Luka Doncic<\/h2>\n<p>Slovenian trade is still as difficult to digest, especially when you see the reasons invoked. We still have the impression that Patrick Dumont, owner and favorable to this exchange, still has no idea what he is talking about when he tries to justify himself. He can&#39;t even protect himself by explaining that Luka might want to leave.<\/p>\n<p><\/p>\n<div class=\"next-post\">\n<p>\n\t\t\t<span class=\"next-post__text\"><\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\tRead<br \/>\n\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t<\/p>\n<p>Luka Doncic confides in Anthony Davis after dominating the Mavericks!\n\t<\/p><\/div>\n<p>Because at the time of the trade, rumors rumored on the status of free agent of Doncic and the possibility that it does not extend. The reality? The player did not want to leave and wanted to spend the rest of his career in Dallas, ready to do anything to imitate Dirk Nowitzki by winning a title. Even Trae Young, long compared with Doncic, says it.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p><strong>@TheTraeYoung<\/strong> : &#8220;He was never going to leave &#8230;&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>No, Donic was never going to leave the Mavericks, but his team made another choice for him. It remains to be seen whether Young will have another scenario, he who also seems very attached to the city of Atlanta. Fortunately, their front office already seems a little more competent.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p><strong>@NicThomasNBA<\/strong> : &#8220;I had never cried while looking at basketball&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p><strong>@OffPeachtree<\/strong> : &#8220;Just like you who will never leave Atlanta. \u00bb\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p><strong>@dgsire<\/strong> : &#8220;Nico Harrison really broke his heart. \u00bb\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\">\n<p><strong>@PacksPick<\/strong> : &#8220;Same as you and the Hawks, but Adam Silver will do his boss and send you to the Spurs to play with Wembanyama. \u00bb\u00bb<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><strong><strong><strong><strong>Even Trae Young is touched in front of Luka Doncic&#39;s images. Slovenian did not want to leave the franchise, but Nico Harrison and the owners decided to opt for another solution.
