We asked the biggest hypothetical question of the year:
What would happen if Luka Doncic was made available to all 29 teams.

Evan Mobley has now met the 65 game criteria and is eligible for postseason honors.
Prior to tonight, Mobley had played 66 games but only 64 met the criteria.
For the past 2 months, we have been tracking every transaction and applying how each applies to the CBA/salary cap.
A great learning resource and it’s free!

Everyone is up for grabs except Johnson, Risacher, Daniels and Okongwu
Win now. Clock is ticking.
Yes
Need to see him on the court to maximize his value.
Great question. This thing is taking a nose dive. They do not make trades during the regular season. Last one was in 2021.
San Antonio with the picks. Certainly did not have an AD level player that they wanted.
I do believe there is a pressing need in LAL for a center
Just posted a graphic. Earliest is Aug. 2
If you are New Orleans, you would want expiring contracts and a first. Toronto has to watch out for finances in 2025-26
There is certainly some dialogue going on. If it was close, Fox would not have played last night.
Focus is likely going to be on the picks coming back if there is a deal.
I would say unlikely
Biggest concern was giving him a five-year $345M guaranteed contract. Look at Philadelphia and Embiid. That could be an albatross and hinder Philly.
I think there is always uncertainty when a player could be a free agent. Luka signing an extension is also a focus.
It is a really good question and there are certainly concerns how he and Luka fit together, especially on D.
Zero. I was brushing my teeth and ready to get under the covers!
It certainly could have been. However, the acquiring team would need to know if he is extending in the summer, same as with Fox.
Would be really surprised re: players. Could look to continue consolidating picks.
Here are the contract options for Luka.
Despite the super max extension off the table, Doncic should actually make more in the long run.
Important to note that the financial playing field in what the Lakers can offer and a team with cap space in 2026 is small. The big advantage is the 5th year.
Flying to LA for trade deadline week.
Lets do some Q/A
Ask anything (well, almost anything)
Reporting with @ramonaespn.bsky.social
How does Phoenix fix a .500 team that blew past the NBA’s punitive second apron to trade for three superstars in pursuit of a championship?
