Doncic Powers Slovenia in EuroBasket 2025…

Luka Doncic has been on a whirlwind vacation from sanity this offseason. From swapping his old body like an expired coupon for a new one, to gallivanting with Jordan Brand, he’s now leading Slovenia to EuroBasket 2025’s round of 16. Slovenia booked their place after triumphing over Iceland and flattening Israel like a steamrolled pancake. Despite the impressive run, the path ahead is as steep as hiking up Mount Everest without shoes. Countries like Serbia and France are also in the race, their benches deep enough to double as swimming pools. But Luka and his squad are far from intimidated—they’re dreaming of medals and spaghetti championships!

Slovenia’s first test comes against Italy, who sit second in Group C with a record shinier than a disco ball in the 70s. Italy’s lineup features NBA firecrackers Simone Fontecchio and Danilo Gallinari, ready to rain on Slovenia’s parade. The victors face the winner of Germany versus Portugal, which is like choosing between wrestling a bear or a tiger. Luckily, with Luka, Slovenia has the ultimate wild card, always ready to explode onto the floor like a fireworks display. Also, Luka just became Slovenia’s all-time top scorer—a feat only rivaled by his ability to eat pizza and play chess simultaneously!
