In the wise words of Michael Jordan, Luka Doncic has taken things personally.
The superstar faced off against the Dallas Mavericks on Tuesday night for the first time since they blindsided him with a blockbuster trade on Feb. 2. The franchise dealt the 25-year-old to the Los Angeles Lakers in a deal that brought Anthony Davis to Texas. Tensions have been high in Dallas following the big move, and Doncic sure looks like he only wants to pour fuel on the fire.
Luka Doncic Stares Down Mavs Bench
Roughly midway through the first quarter, Luka Doncic made his presence felt. He drilled his first three of the game over Max Christie – who was part of the trade that sent Doncic to LA – and PJ Washington. Immediately after the ball dropped through the net, Doncic ran back up the floor and stared down his former teammates.

Once again, Doncic turned to the Mavericks’ bench and nodded:
