CINCINNATI — The Dallas Mavericks shocked the sports world on Sunday night when they traded Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers for Anthony Davis, Max Christie and a first round pick.

ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter shared his football comparison of the trade.

"An NFL equivalent: the Ravens trading Lamar Jackson+ to the Bengals in exchange for Joe Burrow+ — in the middle of the season," Schefter tweeted.

Schefter's example is far from perfect, but it shows you how impactful this trade was.

A Jackson for Burrow swap would be like Dallas trading Doncic and picks to Denver for Nicola Jokic.

Regardless, this is one of the most shocking trades ever. Not just in the NBA, but in the history of professional sports.
