The Lakers’ blockbuster addition dramatically moved them up the oddsboard as a legitimate threat to win the NBA Finals, with Los Angeles shifting from 40/1 down to 14/1 at BetMGM Sportsbook. Those 14/1 odds are tied for the fifth-best mark, and the Lakers are unlikely to be done dealing ahead of Thursday’s NBA Trade Deadline.

Doncic stole all the headlines when Los Angeles seemingly swindled the Dallas Mavericks by signing one of the most talented players in the NBA, but the Lakers made a significant move at the center by bringing in Charlotte Hornets big man Mark Williams in a deal that reshapes the position after moving on from superstar Anthony Davis.
