Luka treated her to a surprise birthday dinner the day he got backstabbed and traded:
The night of the Lakers trade, on Feb. 1, she turned psychologist. After the initial shock — and iPhone toss — Seager told him, “We’re not going to feel sorry for ourselves,” and “You always dreamed of playing basketball at the highest level, and now you’re under the brightest lights with the Lakers,” and “You will be the first European player to be the face of a franchise in a No. 1 large market.”
They flew to L.A. the next morning to meet Lakers brass. They talked of the possibilities; of a new sports marketing platform she’d co-founded with him called 77X, Doncic’s personal brand studio that will serve as a fan community. Afterward, she assumed they’d get some rest, but Doncic said no, he had a surprise. “It’s your birthday, I haven’t forgotten,” he said.
He took her and a group out to dinner, making time for his manager on one of the more overwhelming days of his life.

LB is the goat.
>Seager told him, “We’re not going to feel sorry for ourselves,” and “You always dreamed of playing basketball at the highest level, and now you’re under the brightest lights with the Lakers,” and “You will be the first European player to be the face of a franchise in a No. 1 large market.”
That’s the exact kind of person everyone needs to have in their corner. Granted, this is what Seager was hired for and paid to do. Still, it can’t be understated how important it is to have a good support system. Kept it positive, never came from a place of anger.
The craziest thing from this article is that she has 1 blood sister and 35 adopted siblings
Why’s Hayes the only Laker at the dinner tho lol.
Kind of crazy Nico didn’t even tell him he was being traded
