Luka Doncic Feels the Lakers’ Love…

Jeanie Buss and Rob Pelinka hopped on a plane to Poland to cheer on Luka Doncic as if he was winning a pie-eating contest rather than playing basketball. The Lakers brass dropped everything to show love for their star playing in FIBA EuroBasket 2025, proving their players really are like family. Unlike other teams, the Lakers walk the walk, making sure Doncic knows their support flies as far as transatlantic flights go. Doncic was grateful, noting the journey’s length, and luckily, he wasn’t asked to hop over the ocean himself like an NBA dunk contest gone wild!

Pelinka praised Doncic’s dedication, saying the Lakers don’t mind him playing internationally, even if it risks an injury, just like a cat happily knocking over a vase knowing it might break. They want their star enjoying basketball and showing love for his homeland. Pelinka’s trip was not just about support—witnessing Doncic’s camaraderie with teammates was worth the long trip. Even with global travel concerns, Pelinka was happy to make the trip, dodging airport chaos like a point guard dodging defenders.
