Signature Moments
The Bubble Buzzer-Beater — Game 4 vs Clippers
Luka's first-ever playoff series. Game 4. Overtime. Sprained ankle. He hit a step-back three at the buzzer to force a Game 5. He was 21 years old, limping, in an empty arena during COVID — and hit the biggest shot of the 2020 playoffs.
Twenty-one years old, limping, in an empty gym — and he hit the game-winner. The kid from Slovenia announced himself as the future of basketball.
EuroLeague MVP at 18
Before the NBA, Luka won the EuroLeague MVP and championship with Real Madrid at 18 years old. He was the best player in European basketball as a teenager — dominating grown men in the second-best league in the world.
Most NBA rookies are adjusting to the speed of the game. Luka had already won a championship against grown men in Europe. He arrived in the NBA fully formed.
2024 Finals Run — Leading Dallas Back
Luka led the Mavericks to the 2024 NBA Finals alongside Kyrie Irving, averaging 28.9 points, 9.5 rebounds, and 8.1 assists in the playoffs. He dismantled the Clippers and Timberwolves en route. At 25, he was already the most complete offensive player in basketball.
He dragged Dallas to the Finals at 25. The comparison to young LeBron stopped being hyperbole.
