Luka Doncic’s fiancée, Anamaria Goltes, kept her farewell message to the city of Dallas short after the Mavericks star was traded to the Lakers just after midnight Sunday morning.
Goltes, a model and influencer, wrote, “Thank you,” with a blue heart emoji on her Instagram Story later that day.
She re-shared Doncic’s goodbye letter, “Dear Dallas,” after the Mavericks agreed to trade the five-time NBA All-Star to the Lakers for a package highlighted by Anthony Davis.
She also re-posted the Lakers’ welcome banner for Doncic, which included a graphic of him sporting a Lakers jersey with his number 77.
Dallas traded Doncic, Maxi Kleber and Markieff Morris to Los Angeles for Davis, Max Christie and a 2029 first-round pick in a three-team deal with the Jazz that shook the NBA world to its core.
Utah received Jalen Hood-Schifino, a 2025 second-round pick via the Los Angeles Clippers and the Mavericks’ 2025 second-round pick.
Doncic proposed to Goltes near Bled Castle in Slovenia on July 7, 2023.
The couple announced their engagement on Instagram with the caption, “7.7.”
It came five months after Doncic and Goltes announced the birth of their daughter, Gabriela, in an Instagram post on Dec. 1, 2022.
Goltes, who was on the cover of Cosmopolitan Slovenija in October 2019, previously shared in an Instagram Q&A that she met Doncic “when we were 12 years old at the seaside in Croatia.”
Doncic – who led Dallas to the NBA Finals last season — was eligible for a five-year, $345 million super-max contract extension this summer with the Mavericks.
He can become a free agent in the summer of 2026.
