It has been a whirlwind 24 hours for Luka Doncic.

Luka Doncic was part of the biggest trade in the entire history of the NBA on Saturday night. Overall, the Dallas Mavericks sent him to the Los Angeles Lakers in exchange for Anthony Davis. There were other pieces in the trade but fans only care about AD and Luka. This is easily one of the biggest moves in the history of the NBA. Moreover, it is a move that is a bit perplexing when you consider how the Mavericks just made the NBA Finals with Luka as their number one option.

Now, Doncic gets to team up with LeBron James. These two have a lot of admiration for one another which is going to make this partnership especially interesting. That said, Doncic had some unfinished business to attend to on Sunday. When you leave the team that drafted you, a farewell message is in order. Below, Luka Doncic addresses the Dallas Mavericks fanbase and thanked them for some incredible years with the franchise.

Luka Doncic Bids Farewell To Dallas

Interestingly enough, Luka did not thank the Mavericks organization. Instead, he had nice words for the fans and all of the charities he worked with. This should not be all that surprising when you consider how the Mavs were reportedly dissatisfied with Luka. There are rumors that they resented his work ethic and even his conditioning. However, when it comes to Luka's heartfelt message, there are some on social media who think it was the work of AI. When run through an AI checker, it comes out at 99 percent inhuman.

AI Accusations Run Amuck

There are other AI checkers that claim otherwise, although the allegations of AI usage still persist. Whatever the case may be, this letter to the fans is not going to matter in a few weeks from now. All fans are going to care about is this trade and how the Mavericks completely ruined their future. It is hard to believe they would make this move, but if one thing is for certain, it is that the NBA has always been unpredictable.
