There are no words.

The Dallas Mavericks shook the entire sports world late Saturday night with the shocking trade of star and face-of-the-franchise Luka Dončić.

ESPN’s Shams Charania broke the unbelievable news around 11 p.m. Saturday night that set off a firestorm on social media with everyone thinking his Twitter account had been hacked

It had not.

 The Mavs are trading Dončić, Maxi Kleber and Markieff Morris to the Los Angeles Lakers for Anthony Davis, Max Christie and a 2029 first-round pick per Charania. The three-team deal includes Utah. According to Charania, the Mavs approached the Lakers recently and offered Doncic. The Lakers believed the 25-year-old Dončić has the ability to be the face of their franchise for the next decade while giving Anthony Davis, 31-year-old, a win-now move in Dallas.

Per Charania, “The deal materialized in the shadows. LeBron James had no idea this was coming. I’m told Luka Dončić is still stunned about this trade.”

The player Mavericks fans never thought would leave is gone. And if reports are to be believed, not of his own doing.

The landscape of the NBA has changed in a seismic move that has teams, fans, executives and more legitimately shook.
