Former Lakers champion Robert Horry expressed skepticism about the idea of the Los Angeles Lakers acquiring Dallas Mavericks star Luka Doncic, primarily due to his defensive shortcomings and fitness issues. Horry noted that while Doncic is an exceptional scorer, the Lakers need athletic players who can contribute defensively, which Doncic has struggled with, especially highlighted during the Mavericks' recent Finals loss. Reports indicate that the Lakers are interested in Doncic as a potential future star, particularly as LeBron James nears the end of his career. However, the Mavericks' recent success and Doncic's existing contract may dissuade him from leaving Dallas. Horry's comments reflect a broader concern that adding a one-dimensional player like Doncic could hinder the Lakers' defensive capabilities. Despite Doncic's offensive prowess, the Lakers may need to reassess their approach to acquiring talent that fits their team needs.
