Anthony Davis has been traded to the Dallas Mavericks for Luka Dončić. Analysts suggest AD didn’t know in advance, but he had to have waived an 8M trade bonus. The Lakers are stronger after the trade. But they’ll struggle to defend opponents without a starting-caliber center. I predict they’ll make another trade for a center before the deadline rather than throw this season away. The Lakers saw a chance to get their Lebron replacement and took it, but it will hurt them in the short term without any other trades made. 2/2/2025
