The former championship teammates will find themselves sharing the floor just two weeks after being separated by L.A.'s blockbuster Luka Doncic trade.

The unfathomable trade has certainly shaken up the NBA, but Davis, a longtime close friend of LeBron James, acknowledged that he understands the business side of basketball. It was surely an unexpected move, but he made clear he's looking forward to competing with the Mavericks, where he'll team up with Kyrie Irving and Klay Thompson.

O'Neal took James with the first overall pick, and then drafted Davis with his third pick. Before he could even fill out the roster, reactions flooded in from NBA fans on social media. "Can’t wait for that reunion brothers on and off the court," wrote an X user.
