The blockbuster trade between the LA Lakers and Dallas Mavericks remains a hot topic, even a month after it happened. Anthony Davis and Luka Dončić recently faced off against their former teams for the first time since the trade, though Davis was sidelined due to injury.
During a break, Davis was spotted talking to LeBron James, both covering their mouths—leading to wild speculation from fans.
One fan joked, “Bron telling AD he gon take the minimum if he pull back up when that contract up,” while another added, “On the low talking about how they gonna reunite, I can’t believe it.”
Others chimed in:
- “Bron: u coming back? AD: Yea, I’ll see you later.”
- “Bro think he’s in the mafia.”
- “Look at how they covering their mouths like they’re about to undergo a heist lol.”
Could LeBron Join the Mavericks?
The Mavs have reportedly pursued LeBron for years, and with his player option next season, he could theoretically opt out and sign with Dallas. However, Davis’ return to the Lakers seems less likely, as he still has two years left on his contract per Spotrac.

When the trade happened, even LeBron was caught off guard, initially thinking it was a hoax until he FaceTimed Davis. Reflecting on their time together, he said:
“It was great. It was everything and more. Literally became brothers over the last five-and-a-half years… Obviously, I was at his wedding when he got married. It was special, for sure.”
With Luka Dončić as the Lakers’ new franchise cornerstone, the future remains uncertain—could Davis reunite with the Purple and Gold down the line?
