Korkmaz Calls Doncic a Future Legend…

The Los Angeles Lakers are hoping Luka Doncic will be their superstar for years to come. After being traded from the Dallas Mavericks, Doncic aims for a big redemption season in 2025-26. With him posting wild numbers in EuroBasket, he might as well be auditioning for a sci-fi movie about basketball wizards! Former NBA player Furkan Korkmaz thinks we’ll look back in 10 years and remember his greatness. Korkmaz, who’s spent enough time on courts with Doncic to start an in-game fan club, said, “In 10 years, we were lucky to have watched him.”

Doncic averaged great stats last season despite battling a calf injury. His average of 28.2 points, 8.1 rebounds, and 7.5 assists was enough to make statisticians use abacuses—yes, it was that impressive! Lakers assistant coach Greg St. Jean hopes training camp will help Doncic and LeBron James build chemistry, the kind that could rival top chef recipes. These superstar passers could cook up quite the game, making rival teams wish they’d packed their bibs!
