Luka Doncic went back to his first professional home this weekend and showed the basketball world that he’s on a mission to win his first ever NBA championship.
Going into his 8th season in the best basketball league in the world, the Los Angeles Lakers guard has the opportunity to earn his first Larry O’Brien Trophy alongside one of the best players of all times in LeBron James.
Luka Doncic looks in incredible shape as he makes a special visit to Real Madrid
The Showtime Lakers made an early exit during the 2025 NBA playoffs after getting beat by an inspired Anthony Edwards and the Minnesota Timberwolves, eliminating the Los Angeles team in five games. Luka had a hard time defending opponents, with some analysts saying that he needed to get in better physical shape.
Luka Doncic looks in incredible shape
Game Recap: Liberty @ Fever (5/24/25)
Real Madrid had a VIP spectator in their match against Coviran Granada in the penultimate round of the Regular League. Luka Doncic, a legend with the team, watched the game in the front row of the Movistar Arena alongside club president, Florentino Pérez.
The Slovenian superstar received a standing ovation from the fans before the start of the game. Perez gave Doncic a pair of jerseys as a souvenir: one with his surname and the other with his daughter’s name. But what impressed basketball fans around the world was the fact that Luka looked in great shape.
And social media users had some comments about Luka Doncic’s physical condition. “You can tell how much his face has slimmed down. He going crazy this year,” an X user wrote. “He just eliminated foods that cause inflammation. Inflammation could make him look twice as big without actual weight,” somebody else added. “Not the first time he’s been in his best shape in the offseason,” another person added.
“Luka Magic” wants to pull a major trick
Luka Doncic, nicknamed “Luka Magic“, stands as a prime example of the reservoir of talent Europe has often contributed to the NBA. Transcending geographical boundaries, his journey from the heart of Slovenia to the grand stage of American basketball has made him one of Europe’s premier NBA exports.
Born on Slovenia, Luka started basketball under the mentorship of his father, Sasa Doncic, a former professional basketball player and coach. He quickly gained national fame, dominating youth leagues in Slovenia, and piqued the interest of European powerhouse Real Madrid.
At 15, the young phenom was already training with the first team and made his professional debut at 16, becoming the youngest debutant in Real Madrid’s illustrious history. During his five-year tenure in Spain, Doncic helped Real Madrid win three league titles, two Copas del Rey, the Euroleague championship, and the prestigious Intercontinental Cup.

Pozor, pálí oslavenec Rrahmani! Kanonýr Sparty je ve formě, do kabiny donesl dobroty
V neděli oslavil kosovský forvard 25. narozeniny. A stylově. Od začátku byl nebezpečný. Možná některá přečíslení nevyřešil tak, jak si situace žádala, vše ale splatil později. Nejprve ve 31. minutě, kdy si při rohu Kaana Kairinena naběhl na přední tyč a levačkou překonal Stanislava Dostála.Druhý zásah přidal přibližně po hodině hry. Tentokrát si za vápnem navedl míč na svou silnější pravačku a poslal balon nechytatelně k přední tyči. V tu chvíli zvyšoval na 3:0.Možná je to náhoda, ale 31. srpna se prosadil i minulý rok, kdy pomohl gólem a asistencí k triumfu 2:0 v Hradci Králové. No a rok 2023? To ještě oblékal dres Rapidu Bukurešť a 1. září se dvakrát se trefil v městském derby proti Dinamu.V aktuální sezoně pod staronovým koučem Sparty Brianem Priskem pookřál. Už má na svém kontě osm branek. Z toho pět ligových, v nejvyšší soutěži se aktuálně dělí o první příčku s Matějem Vydrou z Plzně.

Miami vs. Notre Dame live updates: Follow latest from today’s College Football Week 1 game
How important is Sunday night’s showdown with sixth-ranked Notre Dame for Mario Cristobal’s reputation as a game day coach? A win would certainly help his and Miami’s record against AP Top-25 opponents.Since taking over for Manny Diaz in 2022, the Hurricanes have gone 1-6 against ranked opponents under Cristobal, who was 7-6 against ranked foes at Oregon from 2018-21.

Jack Grealish and the picture that sums up what he means to Everton
The picture above, taken shortly after Everton’s 3-2 win at Wolves on Saturday, encapsulates the positive mood around the Merseyside club right now.Fresh from another match-winning turn, Jack Grealish was pulled into, and almost subsumed by, the waves of blue-clad supporters in the away end. “It was like a UFC chokehold,” Grealish said later. “Bless them, it was unbelievable. That’s what it’s about.” For the third time in a week, chants of ‘Super Jack’ were audible as the 29-year-old made his way off the Molineux pitch.AdvertisementSoon after, Bryan Adams’ Summer Of ’69 could be heard blasting out from the Everton dressing room. Grealish strolled around the tunnel area, shirt off, still revelling in this latest triumph. It is still early days in his season-long loan from Manchester City, but he appears to have regained the confidence and purpose that helped […]
