One of the biggest offseason stories throughout the entire NBA involved Los Angeles Lakers superstar Luka Doncic getting into the best shape of his career. Doncic was noticeably slimmer, having dropped a lot of weight, and was even featured on the cover of Men’s Health Magazine outlining his journey.
During his run with Slovenia at FIBA EuroBasket, Luka looked a bit quicker and more energetic on the court and the same could be said at the outset of this season for the Lakers before his unfortunate injury. But the desire to get into elite shape actually came before he joined the purple and gold.
