Luka Doncic is about to enter the groove along with the La Lakers as the team is being built for the playoffs.
An impressive 30-point performance led Luka Doncic to lead the La Lakers and to a victory in the statement against the Oklahoma City Thunder.
The Slovenians still contradictory a bit, but admit that his performance against the Warriors is “unacceptable.”
Anyone who has seen Luka Donsic in the Dallas Mavericks will know that this version of him is a long way from his peak. This is a player with a 70-point game on his resume and has a higher height than he currently plays.
Being able to play with Lebron James is an incredible privilege for any player, including Luka Doncic.
Donsic expressed his praise for LeBron James when LeBron James entered the league and played against him, and now he is a teammate.
The pair began attacking Chemistry before James was injured, and they struggled to reunite before they could win OKC.
Doncic will face his former team later this week, returning to Dallas to face the Mavericks for the first time since trading him in the much-anticipated matchup.
NBA expert Tim Legler told DLLS Sports he expects a big performance from Donsic against his previous team, but he thinks Donsic will be a bit difficult to adapt to playing alongside four-time champion LeBron James.
Regler said: “I think the adjustments to play with guys like LeBron are different from another guy away from the ball, a great player like Kylie, because that’s obviously Luka’s show.
“He is comfortable, he is free in his heart.
“This is different, man. This is LeBron James. And I don’t think it’s just that part of Luke’s mind is completely unrestrained.
“It’s LeBron, so it’s his franchise and he’s still playing at a really high level. So, psychologically for Luka, I think he still has something to do with his job.”
Luka Doncic is given a sufficient license to handle the ball. Lebron James gave him the freedom to do so in the attack.
However, Legler believes something is missing, and this may be manifested in Donsic’s shooting.
He has registered a low carrier of 42.1% from the field, including 0-6 nights from three points against the Warriors.
Regler added that this is the main problem with Donsic today.
He states: “My main thing is that his shooting is everywhere, and for someone who has as much ball as his shot take in volume, it’s hard to win as a team if they’re having an inefficient night less than 40% off the field.
“If you’re on that many empty trips, I don’t care how good your defense is, because your best players, the ones who take the most shots, have a hard time making shots of three, especially those who have three.
