Luka Doncic is preparing to represent Slovenia in the prestigious European Shoe Competition and is setting the team’s goal.
Doncic made it clear that he wanted to win medals at Eurobasket and made sure to point out that he wasn’t the only leader of the team when talking to the media.
“Our goal is always a medal,” Doncic said. “But I’m not the only leader. I think others have a say, too. If you have only one leader in a team, you’re not doing anything. You have to have several leaders.”
Everyone is eager to see Luka’s preparations start on Friday against Germany.
German Captain Dennis Schroder will surely give Doncic flowers.
“He is one of the best players in the world, he can score endlessly, but also have the IQ of the game and always make the right decisions,” Schroder said through Spox.
He added: “Don Sici is a ‘strong competitor and always wants to win.”
Of course, the media couldn’t resist and asked him what the secret to losing 31 pounds was.
“I’ve always had this problem. I think I used to be a good player, too,” he said. “What drove me? Basically, we had a slightly different training plan. Well, I had more time. Last summer I was really tired. I kept playing until June, and then the national team, so I didn’t have the energy. I had more time this year.”
