On Wednesday Luka Doncic will make his return to Dallas with the LA Lakers for the first time since the stunning Feb. 1 trade that sent the superstar west. It will be the second time Doncic has squared off against his former team since the trade, but it will be his first time coming back to American Airlines Center.

As a refresher, the Mavericks only received Anthony Davis, Max Christie, and a 2029 first-round pick for a then 25-year-old five-time First-Team All-NBA selection, while players like Mikal Bridges have gone for five first-round picks. But there is one specific trade asset that the Mavericks didn't receive that Windhorst calls "malpractice."

The Dallas Mavericks sent Luka Doncic congratulations on buying a new home while actively trading him to the Lakers.
