The Los Angeles Lakers made waves during the 2024-25 NBA season with their blockbuster trade for Luka Doncic on February 2. The move brought hope to a struggling team that, just days before the February 6 trade deadline, seemed likely to barely squeeze into the postseason.
However, despite the initial buzz surrounding Doncic’s arrival, things haven’t unfolded as expected. A new report suggests the Lakers may already be considering moving on from the superstar guard. According to one NBA writer, the Lakers could look to trade Doncic to the San Antonio Spurs in what would be a stunning turnaround just months after acquiring him.
The potential deal, still speculative at this stage, would shake up the Western Conference once again and could signal a major shift in strategy for both teams. For the Lakers, it may reflect dissatisfaction with team chemistry, long-term roster balance, or Doncic’s fit with the franchise. For the Spurs, pairing Doncic with emerging star Victor Wembanyama could create a powerhouse tandem for years to come.
Though no official talks have been confirmed, the possibility of such a high-profile trade so soon after the original deal is already fueling heated debate across the league. Stay tuned as the offseason drama continues to build.
