Luka looks like his first day of AA 😂 Don’t worry the LAKERS GOT YOU!!!!!
Luka the future of Lakers
Lmao that guy isn't 270 lbs.
i wont lie , luka is the next nba franchise player , he should be in LA not vegas .. but its sad to see him leave dallas
The NBA is rigged
So basically Rob was saying that it is better for the NBA globally for Luka to get traded to the Lakers because it’s a bigger market than Dallas and in his opinion the NBA is a better place when the Lakers are relevant. This is proof that the League, Rob, Nico and LeBron all have hidden agendas to try and make the Lakers more relevant regardless of the other NBA Cities and their fans. Needs to be investigated since it was two close friends making a trade to obviously benefit one team and City (LA) more than the other (Dallas). The NBA is a joke ran by greedy people.
LeDon
We forget that’s a 25 year old man , not young not old , right at the cusp of becoming who he will be forever . The Mavs have just created a monster .
LeBron James has always wanted to play with Luka and the opportunity has presented itself
FK that Dallas GM – Fk that dude for real. He completely fked LUKA and all of DALLAS
Please fix the audio bro my AirPods rn 😭
go luka
Micheal Finley shouldn’t have taken his beer.
I'll never forget Luka's age cause they don't hesitate to constantly mention that he's 25yrs old.
he will be dieting rn
This interview sounds boring he doesn't sound excited!
That's fucked up… Luka look sad af and like he ont wanna be there… in LA, at the press conference, in the seat answering questions… none of dat… i ont think a ring will change how he feeling even if it's this season… then he gotta sit there and fake it… Of course he like Lebron but he fa sho hurt…
