Luka Doncic, only 23 years old, has already achieved great success. He led the Mavericks to the Western Conference Finals, where unfortunately they lost to the Warriors in a five-game series.
Reflecting on the season’s end, Mavs head coach Jason Kidd shared thoughts on Doncic’s development, emphasizing the importance of playing off the ball and understanding the endurance needed for a championship run.
Doncic’s weight and fitness have been topics of discussion since his NBA debut, but it seems he has been diligently working to silence those critics for the upcoming season.
Doncic returned to the court playing for Slovenia against Italy in a friendly, displaying a notably trim physique compared to his previous appearances.
During the game, he contributed 12 points, five rebounds, and seven assists in a decisive victory for Slovenia over Italy.
Under new coach Jason Kidd, the Mavericks secured the fourth-best record in the Western Conference. Doncic continued his impressive form with MVP-caliber performances, guiding the Mavs to a deep playoff run culminating in the Conference Finals.
For the season, the Slovenian star averaged 28.4 points, 9.1 rebounds, and 8.7 assists per game, showcasing his exceptional talent on the court.
