When Luka Doncic joined the Los Angeles Lakers, it already felt like a monumental shift for the NBA, but his summer work has only added fuel to the belief that he is about to carve out a legendary place in Lakers history. After signing a brand new extension as well as taking major steps forward in his conditioning this offseason, Doncic looks poised to deliver the kind of dominance that could put him among the franchise’s all-time greats by the time things are all said and done.
This is not just hyperbole. Doncic has already made five All-NBA first teams before his 27th birthday, an achievement that puts him in rare company across league history.
