Pelinka and Lakers Support Doncic…

Lakers star Luka Doncic, now built like a Greek god from summer workouts, is gearing up for FIBA EuroBasket 2025 with Slovenia, starting against Poland. Despite Slovenia’s pre-tournament losses—more than an unlucky cat crossing ten paths—Doncic is determined to win a medal. The Lakers, holding their breaths tighter than a balloon, watched him avoid injury. Rob Pelinka, Lakers GM, says the team stands behind Doncic and believes in wardrobe malfunction-free support for their superstar.

To prove it, Pelinka and Jeanie Buss took a trip to Poland, clocking more air miles than Santa on Christmas Eve! This grand gesture was a testimony to how the Lakers treat Doncic like royalty, even though he landed there like an unexpected yet welcomed cat on a keyboard. Doncic himself likens playing for Slovenia to winning shiny medals while prepping for the season, clearly embracing his dual love for country and Lakers with equal zeal.
