Basketball is about feelings: If you want to win, emulate Luka’s superior mental game

I’ve always felt inspired by Luka Donu010diu0107’s mental game. The way he would seek out clutch shots already as a very young player, making many and missing some, but never letting the misses and losses get to his head.

The mental game is in my opinion one of, if not the, most important factor in reaching the highest level as an athlete. A superior mental game, the belief that even if this one didn’t fall, the next one will, even if this game didn’t end as we wanted it to, the next one will, is crucial to consistent success on the court.
