That’s what makes Dončić-for-Davis the most stunning trade in NBA history: Sheer surprise. No rumblings, no warnings, no whining by one, the other or both to play elsewhere. No imminent free agency, at least, and plenty of work still undone where each had been playing. Now, poof! Everything is different. Breathtaking.

The Dallas Mavericks suffered a lopsided 144-101 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers after trading superstar Luka Dončić to the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday.

The Lakers are sending Anthony Davis, Max Christie and a first-round draft pick to the Dallas Mavericks in exchange for Luka Dončić, Maxi Kleber and Markieff Morris in a three-team deal that also includes the Utah Jazz. Dallas officially announced the news on Sunday morning, following a report from ESPN's Shams Charania on Saturday night.

What a NBA trade deadline this has been! On the heels of the most surprising deal in NBA history that saw Luka Doncic moved to the Los Angeles Lakers, the San Antonio Spurs made a splash of their own on Sunday night.

Two more NBA stars were reportedly on the move Sunday night as the San Antonio Spurs, Sacramento Kings and Chicago Bulls struck a three-team deal.
