Kanye West brushes Luka Doncic trade earthquake off amid Twitter frenzy: “Who’s ready for the NBA Finals”

Kanye West shares a hilarious tweet amidst Luka Doncic-Anthony Davis trade

The trade deal involving swaps of mega stars like Anthony Davis and Luka Doncic has caused an upheaval on a global scale. A multi-team transaction between Lakers, Mavericks and Jazz will result in Dallas receiving AD, Max Christie and a first-round pick in exchange for Luka Magic, Maxi Kleber and Markieff Morris.

This three-team trade deal, coming just a week before the February 6th trade deadline, has caught the world off guard. Numerous athletes and celebrities have since reacted to the breaking news with their own candid responses, but none did it better than the rapper and producer Kanye West, aka Ye. In his typical arrogant and ignorant persona, Ye wrote a hilarious tweet:

What the 47-year-old musician was referring to here was the upcoming Super Bowl LIX on February 9th, intentionally mixing it up with the NBA Finals. This was a jest at the historic Anthony Davis-Luka Doncic swap, which was one of the most trending topics in the sports section on X today. Of course, Ye was being sarcastic, as there have been several notable instances of West being courtside at Lakers home games, especially during the Kobe Bryant era.

Ye is often absent from the daily hustle and bustle of social media, but when he is online, he is almost always bound to go viral. His sharp, sarcastic, and provocative lyrics, combined with his tussle with bipolar disorder, have made West a Grammy-winning artist, a global icon, and, most importantly, a Twitter favorite due to his iconic rants and tweets.
