The Dallas Mavericks fell to the Los Angeles Lakers 112-97 on Wednesday night, but it was an important night for a few reasons. First, it was Luka Doncic's first game back in Dallas since the trade. Second, it was Anthony Davis' first game against his former team since the trade. Doncic rose to the moment despite fighting emotions. Davis did not.

All eyes in the NBA world were on Dallas as Luka Doncic returned with the Los Angeles Lakers to take on the Mavericks. It was Doncic's first game back at the American Airlines Center since the shocking trade that sent him to Los Angeles for Anthony Davis.
