In the cutthroat business of the NBA, every team eyes the championship to bring joy to the city they represent. That happiness comes at a cost; most of the time, at the cost of friendship and close bonds. Something similar happened again as a 3-time champion lost his place in the team of Luka Doncic, worth $3.3 billion.

The experienced NBA star would not be welcomed back by the 24-year-old and Co. The former champion turns into a lone star as the teams gear up for the upcoming season.

The management is moving a few pieces here and there to give Luka all the required assistance for next season. If the reports from Marc Stein are to be believed, JaVale McGee could depart the $3.3 billion worth team soon. The 35-year-old could turn into a free agent within the next couple of days, attracting interest from different NBA franchises.

The center previously helped the Golden State Warriors achieve back-to-back championships. He then won another one with the Los Angeles Lakers in 2020. So, the chances of him attracting offers from the top NBA teams can not be written off.
