Luka Doncic is the best 18-year-old basketball player you just getting to know, and he’s getting ready to take on the NBA.

Luka Doncic is a star. The wunderkind from Ljubljana, Slovenia is just 18 years old, yet he is already one of the best young basketball players in the world.

Over this past month, Doncic (pronounced dawn-chich) had the eyes of the world watching him and former All-NBA performer Goran Dragic lead the Slovenian National Team in EuroBasket 2017. Playing against former and future NBA All-Stars like Marc Gasol and Kristaps Porzingis, Doncic more than held his own during the run to Slovenia’s first EuroBasket title this past Sunday.
