Questioning the Mavericks to Becoming the Mavericks! Famous reporter: Antetokounmpo is on his way to the Lakers

In 2025, the highly anticipated NBA lottery ceremony was grandly held in Chicago. What is surprising is that the Mavericks were lucky enough to win the No. 1 pick with a tiny probability of only 1.8%.

The second pick was won by the Spurs, and the 76ers successfully won the Tanhua lottery, while the Hornets took the fourth pick into their arms. The 2025 draft, which attracted much attention from basketball fans around the world, will be held in an orderly manner at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, on June 26 and 27.

"Questioning the Mavericks, understanding the Mavericks, becoming the Mavericks", this may be the psychological process of many NBA team management now.

Yes, in February, the Mavericks took the initiative to find the Lakers to complete the Doncic deal; no matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem like a normal deal, but a naked exchange of interests.

Since the Mavericks have won the No. 1 pick in 2025, they have completely locked in the rare genius Flag in 20 years, and everyone is more convinced of their ideas.

Coincidentally, when the Hornets sent Chris Paul, if Stern hadn't forced the stop button, the super point guard would have put on a purple-gold robe and fought side by side with Kobe Bryant. In 2012, the Hornets won the No. 1 pick and selected Brother Davis. In the summer of 2019, the Pelicans sent Anthony Davis, who was both offensive and defensive, and got the No. 1 pick and Zion Williamson was selected.

2026 is also a year of draft picks. A group of young people who are enough to change the league are eager to try, and many teams want to win the No. 1 pick.

To achieve this, it seems that they must actively engage with the Lakers, such as the Milwaukee Bucks.

According to the latest report by ESPN reporter and salary expert Bobby Marks, Antetokounmpo has been confirmed to leave the Milwaukee Bucks; according to various signs, the superstar is on his way to the Lakers.

The Lakers are currently in a desperate situation with a big player. In fact, what they urgently need is a superstar who can bravely and fearlessly rush into the inside and fight hard. Doncic is obviously not a player of this style, and James has gradually entered his twilight years of his career.

From this perspective, Antetokounmpo, who has excellent height, wingspan and outstanding athletic talent, is undoubtedly the best candidate to meet the needs of the team.

Moreover, Antetokounmpo has excellent defensive skills, which can make up for the relatively weak inside strength of the Purple and Gold Legion to a considerable extent. If Antetokounmpo can join Los Angeles, the Lakers will surely be able to fight to the championship again with all their might.
