It seems that Luka Doncic just cannot stay out of the news. Back in February this year, Doncic took the NBA by storm. Coming to the Los Angeles Lakers from the Dallas Mavericks, Doncic made the most historic deal in recent times. However, with his on-court skills seemingly unparalleled, the fans wanted to address something. It was Doncic’s weight.
Although not alarming, Luka Doncic looked a bit on the bulkier side this season. As the NBA requires immense physical fitness to succeed, the Lakers’ fans were worried about Doncic’s weight management. Interestingly, this is an identical issue that the 25-year-old NBA star had to deal with when he was listed with the Dallas Mavericks. But in a recent video surfacing on the internet, Doncic surprised all of his fans.
Luka is looking slim. 👀 💪

As Doncic was spotted entering a basketball arena, he looked quite toned down. Wearing a half-sleeve t-shirt and track pants, Doncic appeared to have lost a significant amount of weight. Eagle-eyed fans did not waste much time commenting on this.
