Luka Doncic excels at slowing down

Luka Doncic has dominated for the Dallas Mavericks for the past four years. He’s won Rookie of the Year, been selected to three All-Star games, and named to the All-NBA 1st team for three consecutive years. That success translated to the postseason, as Doncic dragged the Mavericks to the Western Conference Finals for the first time in a decade.

Despite all the accolades and numbers, it’s easy for casual fans to dismiss Doncic’s play because it’s fairly ground-bound. He’s not exactly jumping through the rafters or putting guys on posters. But a recent video from Half Court Hoops shows that there’s more than one type of athleticism.
