Doncic mentioned that the change has been hard and difficult. That is no surprise to anyone who has followed Doncic, as he was beloved by every member of the Dallas Mavericks fanbase.

The Lakers have some ground to make in the Western Conference playoff picture. However, this team is still within striking distance of the second seed.

On the flip side, the Mavericks sit in 8th place in the West. The Mavericks are one season removed from an NBA Finals appearance. However, that doesn't seem like a realistic goal at the moment for the franchise.
