That's video of Stephen A. and Michael Wilbon's stunned reactions to Deandre Ayton's game-winning dunk that lifted the Phoenix Suns over the Los Angeles Clippers in Game 2 of the 2021 Western Conference finals. It fits perfectly in this context.
The Mavericks are sending Doncic, Maxi Kleber, and Markieff Morris to the Lakers in exchange for Davis, Max Christie, and a 2029 first-round pick. The Utah Jazz are also involved as they'll get Jalen Hood-Schifino from the Lakers and 2025 second-round picks from Dallas and the Los Angeles Clippers (via LAL).
It is as stunning a trade as we've ever seen in the NBA and Smith's reaction was perfect.
