Trump jokes about trying to "redo" huge Luka Dončić trade in Dallas speech: "I must tell you, I don't understand the trade"
- On Wednesday, United States President Donald Trump criticized the Dallas Mavericks' decision to trade star guard Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers, speaking at the American Airlines Center in Dallas during a midterm convention speech.
- In a bombshell transaction in February 2025, the Mavericks sent Doncic, Maxi Kleber, and Markieff Morris to the Lakers in exchange for Anthony Davis, Max Christie, and a 2029 first-round draft pick.
- Calling the deal "not good," Trump suggested the team should "redo" it, though he conceded the Boston Red Sox's decision to trade Babe Ruth over 100 years ago remains the worst trade in sports history.
- The Mavericks are rebuilding around reigning Rookie of the Year Cooper Flagg, who averaged 21.0 points and 1.2 steals per game during his inaugural season.
- Although many Dallas fans would welcome Doncic back with open arms, the possibility of the star guard returning to the Mavericks anytime soon remains slim.
