Why did Luka Dončić get traded? Rating the top 5 theories based on believability

I told myself I’d give it 100 hours.

It’s been about that much time since the Dallas Mavericks traded their 25-year-old superstar, Luka Donu010diu0107, along with Maxi Kleber and Markieff Morris, to the rival Los Angeles Lakers for Anthony Davis, Max Christie and a 2019 first-round pick. I figured 100 hours would be enough time for some bombshell to come out about Donu010diu0107 and justify the trade.

Did he secretly demand a trade? Get into a brawl behind the scenes? Relieve himself on the Dallas Cowboys star at the 50-yard line?

Turns out, we’ve learned nothing of the sort.
