LeBron James was shocked by the Los Angeles Lakers’ decision to trade Anthony Davis to the Dallas Mavericks for Luka Doncic going so far as to initially believing it was a “hoax.” James expressed how he has no concerns over the direction of the Lakers now that they will build around Doncic.

We have heard from Nico Harrison. “And everything says… I know there’s conspiracy theories out there and everything. There is no conspiracy. Nobody knew. None of them were previously consulted. It hit all of them out of the blue.
