The Dallas Mavericks have been almost universally panned for deciding to trade Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers for Anthony Davis, Max Christie, and a future first-round pick. Even if some people could understand the thought of wanting to trade Doncic, very few people agreed that the package the Mavs got in return was anywhere near enough.

Former Dallas Mayor Tom Leppert has weighed in on the Dallas Mavericks’ Luka Doncic trade to the Los Angeles Lakers. Leppert, now 70, served as the Mayor of Dallas from 2007 to 2011.
