Indeed. Trading Luka Doncic on draft day felt like a bad move for the Hawks when it happened. Nothing that’s happened since then has made it look any better.
But Atlanta’s loss was Dallas’ gain. Wednesday’s outing was another in a long list of reasons why the Mavericks are happy to have Doncic on board.
