This is the best shape I’ve seen him in since his rookie and sophomore season. I haven’t seen him look this good in a while. He’s also getting some muscle, something that’s new to his body. Kid could be the best player in the world, I hope he stays healthy and slim

Have you seen his fotos from last summer while he was preparing for the Eurobasket? He looks even slimmer and more muscular back then. Its all about cardio, not how muscular or slim he is. Btw, for me he looks exactly like he did last year. But people just see what they want to see.

This is the best shape I’ve ever seen Luka look
Luka going for MVP best shape hes been in MAVS SHOULD be EXCITING to WATCH
Hes looking extremely fit and in shape. He's worked hard this break.
Insane how obsessed people are with his weight... Dude is 1st team all NBA... Dominating everyone they put on him... Just hope that Mavs get their act together and get him some proper players and especially a center, so that he won't have to stand so much under the basket battling with much bigger players... The same thing is happening in the national team, but here you understand it, if there are no centers in your country... But in the NBA, its just pathetic from the Mavs front office...

“Get their act together and get him some proper player…” oh shut up, He had a great team before they traded Bronson and everywhere was saying oh can you imagine that’s his number 2. Well at least Bronson was willing to wait around watching him hog the damn ball. Doncic’s test will be whether he can elevate and play with greatness otherwise he’s never going to be anything more than another great European hopeful.

And what greatness? Who did he play with till now that had greatness? And ball hogg... Stop it dude. Just check how efficient was he, that would be a problem if didnt pass the ball, yet he had , only that his team could not put it in the basket. Still, its Luka and his weight. Pathetic...

Slim Luka makes Sluka...wait that one plays for Greece
Damn…❤
I've been gifted in this life to have shared the court with some of the most amazing basketball players ever...some made it to the league and some didn't. Through time I can remember a guy from New London, Connecticut that had a Luka type of build but only stood about 6'2 and his last name was Sikes..anyway..The absolute most unstoppable player I've ever either played against or seen play. He had a Kyrie esque handle, and a pure grace to his game that rivals that of Julius Erving. Deceptive speed, and a remarkable IQ as well. So for me it is beyond understandable to see how Luka is so great because I have seen up close his archetype in a (smaller man, yes) high level tournament in Connecticut against D1 talent as well as NBA talent, and at Luka's size and years of playing at the highest level is just scary to think what he could be in the next few years.
The Greeks won . Giannis and Sloukas absent.

Luka usually looks in his best form late in the regular season close to the playoffs .... looking the way he does right now this early in the season , is really amazing and makes me want the season to start already !! Plus the fact that he stacks 20 points ,14 assists and 9 rebs in a euroleague type game is just astonishing!!! The fact that we r not even making too much of it is even more amazing and is an estimate of how great he is ...i mean thats like hitting 45 in a euroleague game (20,14 and 9 )

Looks like Mavs need to sogn that Morgan dude cuz 99% highlights were Luka Morgan duo. Good on court chemistry reminds me of Nash Stoudemire.
Luka looks like a bronze potato 🥔 out there, dude has definitely been getting some sun in the off-season.
Luka got that Texas tan 😂😂😂
Funny how they did not show him turning over the ball in clutch moment and missing the clutch 3 to give them chance to win.... This guy is a great talent.. but he not mamba mentality yet...
crazy how a blatant offensive foul that's pure disrespect to the whole sport of basketball is shown as a first clip. you guys are out of your mind.. if that's how you play basketball might as well wear helmets and start jumping on each other actually after looking at the whole game, he's just body slamming others, great talent guys, build muscle and jump on people, amazing highlights
Reminds of When Harden was with Houston. He dominated the ball scored (averaged 30 plus a game) assist (averages 10 or more a game) and rebounded (just below 10 a game).....played little to no defense.

True, I prefer two way players. I wouldn’t say that’s always the case though, I’ve seen Luka play decent defense when engaged. I think he’ll start playing more as he matures. Maybe not, contributing to more than 40+ points definitely does help mask his defensive woes to be fair though.
