We’re still trying to pick up our jaws off the floor from the Luka Doncic and Anthony Davis trade.

TRADE GRADES: Who won this Lakers and Mavericks deal?
Here’s some insight: per ESPN’s Tim MacMahon, the Mavs had concerns about “his constant conditioning issues,” and they also were worried about him signing a supermax contract this offseason.
So the question is: will the Lakers be able to offer him a supermax now that he’s been traded to Los Angeles?
Per ESPN’s Bobby Marks, he is not.
