The NBA’s all-time leading scorer, LeBron James, seemingly aimed a subtle jab at the Dallas Mavericks while discussing the blockbuster trade that sent Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers. Nearly two months have passed since Luka Doncic joined the Los Angeles Lakers in a trade that sent Anthony Davis to the Dallas Mavericks.

The 6-foot-10 Kentucky product, 32, was traded to the Mavericks as the returning centerpiece in a deal that saw five-time All-NBA First Team guard Luka Doncic, 26, land with Davis' old Lakers running mate LeBron James on the Los Angeles Lakers.

Since coming to Los Angeles, Lakers guard Luka Doncic has received the utmost praise from LeBron James for his contributions. The Lakers are surging with a 46-29 record and are on the verge of locking up a top-five seed in the playoffs.
