Echoes of ‘The Bambino Curse’
Following Kyrie Irving’s unfortunate knee injury, parallels between Luka Doncic and Babe Ruth began to emerge on social media. However, this comparison delves deeper than mere physicality, drawing eerie similarities to the infamous Curse of the Bambino. In 1919, the Boston Red Sox traded Ruth to the New York Yankees for financial reasons, subsequently enduring an 86-year championship drought until breaking the curse in 2004. The narrative of a curse haunting a team after parting ways with a legendary figure resonates ominously as the Mavericks navigate Irving’s fall and Doncic’s ascent.
