After forming a superteam at the Dallas Mavericks with Kyrie Irving and PJ Washington, Luka Doncic fell just short of his NBA championship dream. The Mavericks lost 4-1 against the Boston Celtics in the 2024 NBA Finals. After the Finals loss, Doncic failed to qualify for the Paris Olympics 2024 with Slovenia, and now the fans and analysts have shared concerns about the Slovenian guard’s increasing size.

Doncic appeared last week at his compatriot Goran Dragic’s farewell game, Night of the Dragon. The 25-year-old guard is subjected to fat shaming after the game in Slovenia. Some fans reacted hilariously by comparing Luka’s body to Jokic’s.

Regarding his weight, NBA analyst Jason Timpf called out Doncic for being out of shape. The Hoops Tonight host compared the 2024 scoring champion’s different sizes and agreed with the size advantage in the NBA.

In a video posted by The Volume on X, Timpf said, “There was a video that was going around of Luka’s game-winner against the Clippers in the bubble in 2020. And he looked like really thin compared to the way he looks now. I do agree that there’s an advantage that comes from being bigger and strong. That’s just a fact. And I’m sure there are some situations now where Luka is able to bully some players that maybe he didn’t used to be able to.”

Jason Timpf Claims Luka Doncic Was In Peak Shape With Same Weight

The NBA analyst continued examining Luka’s shape and believed that the Mavericks guard already had his peak shape with a similar weight. Timpf continued, “Luka was still bullying guys back then. And I’m not saying that he needs to just go get skinny.”

He added, “Ideally, there’s a version of this where he is in peak shape and has the same amount of weight maybe that he has now. But it’s more functional because it makes him mobile because it’s muscle instead of body fat.”

The 2024-25 NBA season begins on October 22, and Luka Doncic has almost two months to get back in shape. After finishing the last season as runners-up, the Dallas Mavericks will look to win their second NBA championship in the upcoming season.

Like most others, Michael Jordan is attempting to make the most of his summer by taking a pleasant vacation. Online footage of the NBA legend traveling to Italy with his spouse, Yvette Prieto, has just surfaced.

In one video, Jordan and Prieto can be seen dancing at a table at what seems to be a nightclub. Like in his playing days, the six-time champion smokes a cigar on his night out. The pair eventually lose themselves in the intensity of the occasion and start dancing. Michael Jordan and his spouse traveled to Italy in elegance, as anticipated. The Chicago Bulls icon is currently on a superyacht.

Several memorable moments occurred during the evening, such as the amusing present from the nightclub: a tambourine with their faces from the same night’s picture. Prieto held the unique gift up for Jordan to see, and it caused grins and laughter.

Jordan also interacted with people on their Capri excursion, shaking hands, striking pictures at their table, and dancing with them. His approachable manner and eagerness to interact with people emphasized his genuine nature even more.
