How do you look back on your time in Dallas now? Luka: I would say I gave everything to that franchise. I played through a lot of injuries—a lot of people don’t know that. Never asked for anything—just small things. And honestly, I had a great time. It was the first team that drafted me. I mean, the trade happened during the draft, but I came there as a kid when I was 18. I didn’t know what to expect from the NBA—I didn’t know if I’d be good or bad. So they gave me the opportunity, and I really appreciate it.

📈 NEW BIG NUMBER w/ @YourManDevine
Luka Dončić is doing something no other LeBron James teammate has done before. Also, why Jayson Tatum’s wrist issue is concerning for Boston.

My favorite part of this story where NBA players share their (anonymous) opinion of the Luka Doncic trade? The Lakers players aren’t hard to find…

When the Wolves dominated Game 1, the Lakers heard them howling in the hallway afterward. One game later, with Luka, LeBron, Redick and all the rest responding, this series suddenly sounded much different.

More on this storyline
You said that the moment you felt like you started to feel those emotions—you said the moment you started to cry—was when you saw that shot you made over Rudy Gobert in the Western Conference Finals. Why was that the moment that made you tear up? Luka: Well, I would say just the chemistry we had with that team. You know, everybody had each other’s back. We were rolling. We were always the underdog in that series, and we came through. It was just—I don’t know how to explain—it was special moments. It was just… most of all, I mean, fun. Obviously fun, but on the court, we were all connected. -via YouTube / April 24, 2025
Was your intention to finish your career in Dallas? Luka: Of course. That’s an easy question. -via YouTube / April 24, 2025
Staying in Los Angeles is what you want to do? Luka: Yes. -via YouTube / April 24, 2025
