Succeeding LeBron James and Michael Jordan is a particularly difficult task. According to a former athlete, a league player can do it! Indeed, he is very similar to his elders in one fundamental aspect of the orange ball.
28 points, 9.3 rebounds and 8.8 assists per game: difficult to find a more breathtaking statistic line than that of Luka Doncic. It has now been three seasons that the Slovenian is close to triple-double average per game. Remember that the player who passed Real Madrid is still only 22 years old… This does not prevent him from dominating like few players before him, and his potential is salivating for the years to come. We can expect to see him regularly fight for the MVP!
The doubts surrounding him before his draft in 2018 quickly dissipated, and there are not many observers who are not already his charm. Former NFL player, Marcus Spears, however, follows league news closely and was rave about the Mavericks winger during an interview with Kendrick Perkins. For him, what Halleluka shows is not far from reminiscent of the exploits of Michael Jordan or even another all-time player still active:
Luka Doncic, heir to LeBron and Michael Jordan?
In terms of entertainment, I prefer Ja Morant to Luka. But if I project myself a little, look to the future, Luka is just incredible in my eyes. Luka is 2m03 tall. Let me start there, Luka is physical. The thing I like the most about Luka Doncic is that he always plays the game on his terms.
That’s how I judge the players. That’s the thing I’ve always felt about LeBron Jameswhich I have always felt in Kobe Bryant, like MJ Michael Jordan. I was young when I watched MJ, I didn’t really have a great knowledge of basketball, but I knew he was great and I knew he not only dictated the pace but also the way the game was played. I see that in Luka.
Ultra-versatile, like the King he admired for a long time during his youth, El Matador compensates for his lack of athletic qualities with a technique and above all, an absolutely extraordinary sense of rhythm. Everything seems to go in slow motion for him, which allows him to find sometimes tiny spaces to shoot to put his teammates in the spotlight. It’s the hallmark of the greats and to say it’s ahead of some gaming legends isn’t so unreasonable.
Luka Doncic is not yet 25, but he already dominates at an absolutely mind-blowing level on the court. We dare not imagine what it will give when he enters his prime! Clearly, we have here one of the faces of the future in the NBA.
