Lakers great Magic Johnson was fired up after hearing the news on Sunday and he shared his feelings about the move in a number of tweets. In one, he compared the trade to when the Los Angeles Dodgers signed Shohei Ohtani in free agency.

The Los Angeles Lakers demonstrated their commitment to the future with the blockbuster Anthony Davis-Luka Doncic trade. In response, franchise legend Magic Johnson shared high praise for Doncic and his potential impact on the team.

The Lakers icon admitted that it could be a potential "problem" for the franchise. "Usage rate may be a problem for the Lakers because LeBron, Luka, and Austin all love to have the ball in their hands," Johnson wrote on X.
