The NBA world was rocked when the Los Angeles Lakers pulled off a surprise trade, sending Anthony Davis, Max Christie, and a 2029 first-round pick to the Dallas Mavericks in exchange for Luka Doncic, along with Maxi Kleber and Markieff Morris. But while the basketball community scrambled to process the blockbuster deal, it was Travis Kelce’s ex-girlfriend who managed to steal some of the spotlight with a savage Instagram story aimed at none other than LeBron James.
Posting shortly after the trade news broke, she wrote, “On this week’s episode of the Real Husbands of LA…”-a snarky jab at LeBron’s apparent surprise when he learned about the deal during a post-game dinner in New York. The comment quickly went viral, with fans flooding social media to react to the unexpected crossover of NBA drama and celebrity gossip.

LeBron caught off guard as Mahomes reacts in disbelief
LeBron James had just delivered a stellar performance-dropping 33 points, 12 assists, and 11 rebounds against the Knicks-when the news of the trade reached him. Reports suggest he was blindsided, having no idea that such a massive shake-up was underway. While LeBron maintained his signature cool in public, the internet had a field day, turning Kelce’s ex’s comment into the latest meme-worthy moment.
Meanwhile, NFL superstar Patrick Mahomes, a known Mavericks fan, didn’t hide his feelings. Reacting on X (formerly Twitter), he posted, “Wait what?” followed by “I’m sick rn…”-capturing the collective shock of Dallas fans who weren’t expecting to lose their franchise player, Luka Doncic.
The trade not only reshaped the NBA landscape but also triggered emotional reactions across the sports world. LeBron may be the king on the court, but this time, it was an unexpected social media post that delivered the real mic-drop moment.
