Luka Doncic is a Point Guard for the Dallas Mavericks. Luka was born on the 28th of February 1999 in Ljubljana, Slovenia. His mother, Mirjam Poterbin owns beauty salons, and his father, Sasa Doncic is a basketball coach. After his parents’ divorce in 2008, Luka was raised by his mother. He enjoyed a close relationship with her until the pair started battling in court.
Growing up Luka was fond of sports and played basketball in his primary school. He was a fan of the Greek Basketball player, Vassilis Spanoulis, and grew up in awe of LeBron James.
The Atlanta Hawks initially picked up Doncic at the 2018 NBA Draft. However, they chose to trade the Slovenian to the Dallas Mavericks later on for Trae Young. Since then, Luka has been pivotal for the Dallas Mavericks. He has averaged 7.0 points, 8.6 rebounds and 8.0 assists in 294 games played, including playoffs.
Luka has made a name for himself as one of the best young players in the NBA. In addition to that, many have predicted that he will also be the 2022-23 NBA MVP. The reason for that would be his skill, ability, and size which he uses to his advantage. The common opinion in the NBA community is that Luka Doncic will soon become the face of the NBA, given his talent and flair.
