The Los Angeles Lakers sent a shockwave through the entire sports world with a blockbuster 3-team trade for superstar Luka Dončić ahead of Thursday’s trade deadline. The trade sends shock waves throughout the NBA with two of the league's top players changing teams.

The Los Angeles Lakers introduced their shiny new star Luka Doncic at a Tuesday press conference. Team general manager Rob Pelinka acknowledged what has become an agreed-upon talking point since the blockbuster deal went down: that the Lakers now desperately need another big man and there are very few that come close to matching that of Anthony Davis.

"I was almost asleep, so when I got a call, I had to check if it was April first," Dončić said about learning he was traded to the Lakers.
