Davis was asked about his actions and choice of words, and acknowledged the disappointment being felt in the fanbase by Luka Doncic’s exit. He explained, while fighting his own corner: “I know the whole the city was down because of the Luka thing. “At the same time, you know, I know who I am as a player. I’m top 75 of all time, and I just want to let the Dallas fans like, ‘hey, I got you, I’m here now.’ “So, like, I know you lost a,superstar Luka, but you also gain a superstar myself.” -via NBA Analysis Network / March 8, 2025
