From the Lakers first level to the best body type in their career! Doncic loses 28 pounds and loses 77 to overturn the league

This offseason, Luca Doncic, the core star of the Dallas Mavericks, became the hot topic of discussion in the basketball circle due to a visible change - he has lost weight and is quite obvious. The host of

Slovenia POP TV TV station revealed in a news program that Doncic has successfully lost 28 catties (14 kg) compared to a year ago. This change is not groundless. He had previously been successfully on the cover of Men's Health magazine due to his shaping. Back to when he first joined the Lakers in February this year, his weight reached 245 kilograms (122.5 kilograms), which was the "first weight" in the Lakers at that time.

Netizens talked about this, some joked, "It's time to be called thin 77" and even joked, "When I first arrived at the Lakers, my weight was similar to O'Neal, who had just entered the Lakers";

Some people also thought of his past: "Leng Knowledge: When East 77 was fat in the past two years, they led the team to the Western Conference Finals and the Finals respectively, and the essential reason was not because he was fat";

Some people even used metaphors to describe it: "It's like a 'Internet-addicted boy' who can't control anyone at home, and suddenly became honest and self-disciplined when they went to the military camp";

Some people bluntly said, "It seems that they are determined to win the MVP", and of course there are also doubts: "It's hard to imagine that a young top five star in the league who is in his year of playing has become the only news point to praise him during the offseason." The transformation of body shape not only triggered discussion among netizens, but was also regarded by the US media as a proof of the best state in their career. US media posted photos of Doncic's national team and said: "Whatever you say, Luca's body shape is definitely the best in his career." In the photo, his chin lines are clear, his arms look slender, and his belly is obviously smaller. The expectations of netizens were full: "I'm going to cut melons and vegetables next season, I'm so excited." "I'm getting smaller, I'm looking forward to next season." Some people said half-jokingly: "It turns out that fat people can lose weight, thinking that they can't lose weight like a certain light." Some people even mentioned defense: "This body has also been thinner, and it's unreasonable to not defend. There is a starting point where the Lakers are lazy and unable to watch. The electric fan that wipes the butt can't be left." Behind the external changes is Luca's urgent pursuit of higher goals. ESPN once wrote an article describing that when Doncic met with Pelinka and Redick in May this year, he expressed a clear attitude towards the future. "I don't want to wait any longer," a source who knew the conversation at the time revealed. "I have tasted the finals and I want to return there, so now we will do our best to complete this." This determination may be the core driving force for him to insist on shaping and maintaining his condition.

And the upcoming event will be an excellent stage to test his condition. According to reporter Iztok Franko, Doncic is expected to play in a warm-up match against Germany, which is scheduled to be held at 2:15 am on August 9.

Before the men's basketball European Championship starts, Slovenia will also play multiple warm-up matches with Serbia, Lithuania and other teams. In this year's European Championship, Slovenia was assigned to Group D. The opponents in the same group include France, Poland, Belgium, Israel and Iceland. At 2:30 am on August 29, they will usher in their first match, with Poland led by Sohan.

From self-discipline of losing 28 kilograms, to the determination to "not want to wait any longer", to the upcoming European Championship journey, Doncic is moving towards a new challenge with a new attitude. Regardless of the outside world's evaluation, the young star is obviously ready and looks forward to his performance on the field to respond to all attention.
