The Los Angeles Lakers superstar LeBron James surprised everyone by picking the Mavericks stars Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving during the All-Star draft. Even though the result of the All-Star game didn’t favor James’ team, the fans enjoyed the trio on the same line-up. Moreover, the fans spotted the Mavs duo having a good time at the Sunday night game. However, an NBA legend didn’t let the fans have their moment, shaking them with a shocking trade rumor. Following the legend’s statement, the fans swarmed Twitter with their takes.
Irving found his new home in the Mavericks camp after he forced his way out of the Brooklyn Nets team. Moreover, the trade rumors on the fourth-quarter master before the deadline revealed Irving’s interest in the Lakers. Even King James expressed his disappointment in not acquiring Uncle Drew to his side. Weeks after the trade, 2x NBA All-Star Vince Carter opened up further discussions on Irving’s chances at the Lakers’ camp.
