Lakers Fans Expose Mavs’ Lies on Luka Doncic’s Weight as Anthony Davis’ Dallas Arrival Raises Alarming Questions

Amid the hilarious celebrity reactions, memes, and analysts’ contrasting views, the moment has finally arrived. The truth. Hours after the earth-shattering announcement from Shams Charania, Luka Doncic kept the paparazzi busy last night. Amid the rousing cheers of the camera shutters, the 25-year-old walked out of the private jet, donning a black hoodie. Mind you there weren’t any crutches at play. While I was focusing on the star’s calf strain, online fans picked up something else! Firstly a lie and a concerning footage from Texas.

Well, it’s a controversial debate surrounding Luka’s exit from the Mavs. There were multiple reasons behind GM Nico Harrison’s decision to trade out the guard under a shadow negotiation. One of them was his defensive abilities. Speaking of which, he said, “I believe that defense wins championships… I believe that getting an All-Defensive center and an All-NBA player with a defensive mindset gives us a better chance. We’re built to win now and in the future.” via ESPN’s Tim MacMahon.

Apart from the defensive abilities, there was also another pressing criticism. And it was on the star’s conditioning. In almost every single season of his career, Luka Doncic has suffered injuries and never played a season without missing games. This season, he played his last game on December 25th and sustained a calf strain. While he was struggling to rest his foot on the floor, last night, the Slovenian’s walk out of the jet was an assuring sight.

Most importantly, the fans couldn’t shut up about it. On the other hand, contrastingly, Anthony Davis landed in Dallas without much frenzy and walked without any emotion on his face. Clearly, a concerning sight, considering Doncic’s wholesome reception in LA where Rob Pelinka personally received the star guard at the airport.

Luka Doncic and Anthony Davis exchange cities leaving fans divided

First of all, the Lakers fans were surprised at the sight of Doncic amid the controversies surrounding the star’s conditioning and fitness. A fan smashing those opinions, wrote, “Luka does NOT look 270 pounds,” meanwhile some fans accused the Mavericks of spreading lies. At the same time, another fan gave credit to the Slovenian guard, assuming that Luka forced this trade. They wrote, “He pulled a James Harden.”

The OGs don’t forget the crazy jazz James Harden pulled to get himself out of the Houston Rockets. There was a viral photo of Beard, walking in H-Town practice gear, looking extremely unfit. Cut to the trade, Harden suddenly looked shredded in the Nets’ uniform, triggering speculation that he used a body suit to look bulky. Nevertheless, that doesn’t seem to be the case with Luka, as another set of fans still argued that the 25-year-old wasn’t fit. A fan wrote, “Remove those hoodies and you will see.” 

On the other side, there’s a growing concern regarding the Mavs unit on their unfair attack on their generational talent. The team knocked him out of the chance of getting a super-max contract and most importantly, they haven’t shared a tribute video for the star yet. Meanwhile it’s entirely contrasting with the Lakers.

However, ironically, Doncic seemed to be the happiest of the two. The video of Anthony Davis walking out of the Dallas airport is the proof. A fan, pointing that out, wrote, “He not happy hahaha” Maybe Davis probably saving his energy for the rest of the season. Moreover, a Mavs fan had a wish for the sulking superstar which was, “I really want Anthony Davis to win a ring.” Who is closer to the ring? Let us know in the comments below.
