Luka Doncic Reveals Surprising Perk About Being Traded to Lakers

Los Angeles Lakers star Luka Doncic has even played a full season with the storied franchise, but he has already ingratiated himself with the team and city.

Doncic came to the Lakers in the middle of the season from a trade that came out of nowhere. He was not prepared or aware that his name was at the center of trade talks.

His initial reaction to the deal and his new home was somber; he was of the mind that he would spend the entirety of his career in Dallas.

The Lakers made a massive bet on Doncic's potential willingness to resign with the team, given he has a player option after the upcoming season.

Los Angeles traded a top player in Anthony Davis, along with a future first-round pick and the promising Max Christie, to get Doncic at the trade deadline. The blockbuster trade shocked the entire NBA world.

As the dust has settled, Doncic looks increasing more comfortable in Los Angeles.

During an appearance on Lebron James' "Mind the Game" podcast, Doncic revealed what he has enjoyed while playing for the Lakers.

"First of all, this is the first city I'm playing in that has an ocean, after a couple days, that was the first thing on my mind. I like it, I like it very much," Doncic said on the podcast.

"The only thing is the traffic….everytime there is famous people watching your game, sitting courtside, that's amazing to see."
