Dennis Schroder just found out about the LA Lakers acquisition of Rui Hachimura via a trade, and his live reaction was legendary. The Lakers point guard was simply minding his own when he found out about the trade and started to process the whole thing awkwardly.

Schroder was doing a live stream when he found out that his now former teammate Kendrick Nunn was part of a trade. At first, he looked puzzled. Then, complete shock followed. Quickly, after putting the pieces together, he got up and reached out to his fellow guard.

"I gotta text Kendrick Nunn," Schroder said as he got up from his seat.
"That's crazy man. NBA's a business, insane," he added.

Most fans might have experienced what Schroder went through as he processed the whole thing all at once. He also spoke the truth about the league being a business. Now, he can at least relax that he wasn't part of a trade as Los Angeles tries its best to find the right pieces.

The Lakers (22-25) have done an exceptional job in not completely tanking this season despite their star forward, Anthony Davis, being on the sidelines due to injuries. Schroder has been incredible for Los Angeles this season. He's averaging 12.5 points, 2.5 rebounds and 3.9 assists while being the starting point guard.
