Reaction has been flooding in after the Dallas Mavericks shocked the NBA world by trading superstar Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers. 

Doncic’s father, Sasa, isn’t too pleased with his now-former team’s treatment of his son. 

The elder Doncic made an appearance with Arena Sport Slovenija, where he called the Mavericks’ treatment of Luka "very unfair," saying that the trade "hurts me personally."

"I understand there comes a moment when you disagree with a certain philosophy," Sasa said in Slovenian, which was translated by Arena Sport Slovenija. "You don’t like this or that player, all good, I get it. But I think that exactly this secrecy, or should I say from some individuals, maybe even hypocrisy, this hurts me personally.

"Because I think that Luka absolutely doesn’t deserve this. Giving the fact that at least, as I know, sacrificed himself enormously and even all the stories now that someone is releasing that he wants to apologize for the things that they’re doing. I feel like this is very unfair from some individuals because I know that Luka respected Dallas a lot. He respected the whole city, helped children."

Some of the "unfair" treatment Sasa is discussing could revolve around a report from ESPN that said the Mavericks had concerns about Doncic’s conditioning, which could impede the 25-year-old reaching his full potential.
