Luka Donsic’s appearance at Real Madrid has sparked NBA fans, but in a good way.
Luka Donsic was traded with the Los Angeles Lakers in the middle of the regular season, but fans were hoping he would feel at home soon.
Obviously, Don Sic took a moment before he showed signs of his true form in the iconic purple and gold jersey. He played 28 regular season games, averaging 28.2 points, 8.1 rebounds and 7.5 assists per game.
These are great numbers considering the emotional confusion Don Sic had to go through since he was traded. However, the LA Lakers’ first round exit led many to call Luka for his physique.
With each offseason, Doncic’s fitness becomes a major topic of discussion in the NBA community. Doncic is no longer a member of MAVS, but this trend continues.
Many share their opinions on what to expect from Don Sic after a long offseason, mainly around his fitness. Well, the recent appearance of the NBA All-Stars five times more in the Real Madrid game answered that question.
After seeing the photos, NBA fans are oozing excitedly to see a slimmer version of the Lakers superstar.
“Amazing! Luka. Another thing has been added, but “The goats are in shape.”
“Next year we got it all,” an excited fan responded.
“Bravo Luka is worthy,” a fan praised it.
Fans announced: “It looks like he was in the gym. The league has a big problem.”
A common theme after seeing the photos was about seeing Don Chic in a much better way than fans last saw him on the Lakers’ 2025 postseason run.
The 2025-26 NBA season marks Donsic’s first full year with the Lakers. Given that he has a full offseason to train, it’s not surprising that Luka plays the best basketball of his career next season.
According to Slovenian sports outlet H/T Sports Illustrated, the Lakers superstar appears to have taken the first step towards that.
“In the first phase of the long period between seasons, Donsic, now without basketball, is dedicated to changing his body in Ljubljana, including both guided indoor conditioning and a modified diet.
“The initial physical results are already very clear and the measurements are encouraging,” the report revealed.
Although there is a visible difference in Donsic’s physique, the true test of his transformation lies in the hardwoods as the new season begins.
