An interesting report came out claiming that the Luka Doncic trade didn’t go down quite like they said. Anthony Davis was the Dallas Mavericks third choice. They originally contacted the Milwaukee Bucks about trading for Giannis and when that was declined they contacted the Minnesota Timberwolves about Anthony Edwards. After that was declined they contacted the Lakers.
Wow that's really crazy and didn't know they come up with other option aside from contacting Lakers and got curious about why does Mavs would really think that Bucks will trade Giannis out of their team for sure their fans would not gonna love this to happen and also for sure the management doesn't want to let go their franchise player.

But to bad they land on their last option and they get another injury prone player.
