Luka Doncic Discussion: Lean Mean Slovenian Scoring Machine

that was fast....

 

Oh S***!



…. who’s the lurker or rat around here?

 

Slovenia's superstar Luka Doncic will sit out his second straight preparation game for the national team

Doncic is officially out for today's matchup against Lithuania, which tips off at 7:30 p.m. GMT (12:30 p.m. ET).

However, it has been announced that he will be available for tomorrow's game against Latvia.

 

guess he's sitting halves of b2bs. makes sense for everyone.

 

There's no sense to play B2B in friendly games before championship

 

Without Luka Slovenia losing by 27 at half time to Lithuania

 

(rhetorical) who's the second-best player for slovenia?

 

After Older brother of Dragic quit his career, nobody

I have a feeling that this year is Luka's revenge year. I just have the feeling that we are going to see an MVP, Finals MVP, and a title. I've watched him get revenge for less. And we are seeing a young man who was just told he wasn't good enough. It's on an poppin.

 

Luka is injured.
He left and probably won't return
Slovenia is down by 16

 

teammate fell onto his knee awkwardly. reminded me a bit of how bynum got injured in 08. this is not good

time to shut him down. there's no reason why he should be out there trying to carry this terrible slovenia team

 

Ugggggh!!



Oh crap and we traded AR because of the duplication and him not being a POA defender the sad sack.

 

And he was going to score 40 + points.
The Slovenian star scored 15 points in the first quarter, playing just 9 minutes. At one point, it seemed like the LA Lakers star was toying with his opponents, casually draining a half-court 3-point shot. In the first minute alone, Doncic had made two 3-pointers.

After the conclusion of the first quarter, Luka Doncic had 15 points, 3 assists and 2 rebounds.
Doncic had 26 points until he was hurt, scoring all of them by halftime as Slovenia led 52 – 50. Latvia entered the third quarter with a 18 – 0 run to eventually win 100 – 88 behind 20 points by Kristaps Porzingis.
If he's healthy to play he will be one of candidate for most points score at championship

 

sounds like he escaped serious injury? he was reportedly asking to return to the game but was held out

no reason for him to be playing in these meaningless warmup games

 

looked like some of the weight had come off the leg before the weird impact. yikes in any case...

 

Shut it down. I respect him for playing for his national team, being a gamer and all but just stop. His team sucks anyways.

 

meaningless it's for LeBron or Durant.
European players are very serious about national team .Gasol brothers always played.
Jokic playing,Markanen for Finland and Giannis will play vs Latvia

 

I understand some wanting him to “shut it down,” but unless there’s a clause in his Lakers contract that prohibits it, you gotta let him play.
If I were in his position, I would want to play for my country as well.

 

just keep him out of these warmup games. there's no reason to risk anything for games that don't mean anything

even though i don't see the point of him playing for a s***ty slovenia team that's not going anywhere, i don't think there's anything the lakers can do. representing their countries means everything to these euro guys
