LeBron James, Giannis Antentokounmpo to Captain All-Star Game

LeBron James spoke about the Luka Doncic trade for the first time after winning 122-97 over the L.A. Clippers. He revealed he thought the Doncic for Davis trade was a “hoax.”

James’ remarks came after he led the Lakers to a 122-97 win behind 26 points, nine assists, and eight rebounds.

“It still pretty much didn’t seem real until I saw Luka today and I saw a clip of AD at the Dallas shootaround,” James said. “That’s when it finally hit me, like, ‘Oh s—, this is real.'”

James also asserted his desire to stay with the Lakers, “If I had concerns about it, I’d waive my no-trade clause and get up out of here.”
