The Los Angeles Lakers were involved in one of the biggest trades in NBA history over the weekend, swapping Anthony Davis for Dallas Mavericks superstar Luka Doncic. Doncic and Davis were obviously the headlining acquisitions on both sides, but L.A. also said goodbye to the blossoming Max Christie.
Christie was in his third year with the Lakers, but it was his first year as a regular part of the rotation, and he was undoubtedly making the most of it. He was in the starting lineup for the Lakers and in his final game with the team, he had 15 points on 6-for-10 shooting and was a plus-21 in a big win over the New York Knicks.
