The NBA world was turned upside down late Saturday night with the bombshell report that the Mavericks were trading their super star point guard Luka Doncic to the Lakers in exchange for Anthony Davis and a few other pieces. Doncic was widely considered one of the best players in the league and at just 25 years old, seemed to be entering his prime. It was a trade that no body saw coming. Anyone that talked about the trade, could only talk about how shocked they were.
Everyone but Devin Booker.
The Suns star guard saw an the opportunity to troll his rival one more time, and decided to take it. Two days ago the Mavericks tweeted out the meme picture of Luka staring down Booker in response to a post saying, “you cant tweet out a random picture and expect people to understand it.”

Well, Booker saw the post and saw his opportunity. Book quote tweeted it with the caption, “Kept their word.”
Kept their word https://t.co/f4szGOQLm4

Hysterical troll. And Book isn’t wrong. Can’t imagine Dallas will be using any pictures of Luka anytime soon after pulling off this move.
