The NBA Mavericks recently traded star Doncic to the Lakers in exchange for Davis's operation, which caused a sensation in the world of sports. Mahomes, a three-time champion quarterback of the NFL Kansas Chiefs who is a die-hard Mavericks fan, also admitted that the deal allowed him to trade Doncic to the Lakers.

Born in Texas, Mahomes has been a Mavericks fan since he was a child. After leading the Chiefs to the Super Bowl again this year and meeting the Philadelphia Hawks, his opponent two years ago, he felt like many NBA stars after learning that Doncic had been traded, and he posted on his personal X platform: "What the hell? "I'm really throwing up now..."
At the press conference on the opening night of the 59th Super Bowl on the 4th, Mahomes was asked again about the Doncic trade case in an interview. "It's so uncomfortable because I've been following Doncic since he was just 18 years old," he said bluntly. I remember going to see a practice session where Nowitzki and Doncic were on the floor. It's been a real pleasure to see him grow and become a great player. ”
"As a Dallas fan, it hurts my heart," Mahomes said. But I'm also happy for him because he's going to Los Angeles to fulfill his championship dream. Not only did he contribute immensely to the team, but he also had a profound impact on the city of Dallas. I'm forever grateful for the good things he has brought to the table, and I'm excited about the future of the Mavericks and the new players they've brought in. ”
Not only Mahomes, but also star running back Barkley, who moved from the New York Giants to the Hawks this season and played an epic season, was also shocked by the Doncic trade, "I think everyone in sports is scared, but professional sports are a crazy business, and I'm sure Doncic and Davis will take advantage of this opportunity." ”
