Dallas Mavericks star Luka Doncic appears to have undergone a remarkable body transformation during his offseason.
The point guard had a career year in 2022/23 but missed the playoffs for the first time since his first season in the NBA. And it appears he isn’t all that keen on repeating next term as he’s already lost a significant amount of weight, with the season not quite done yet.
Luka is one of the players in the league who has been criticized over his body as he isn’t quite your conventional point guard. Talent-wise, he’s bound to be among the greats by the time his career is over as he’s one of the most impactful professionals around. But he does run a little large for a backcourt star – well, at least that used to be the case.
The 24-year-old was recently pictured standing next to a fan looking a lot slimmer than we last saw him. In fact, he was near unrecognizable.
Luka is back home in Slovenia, which could explain his weight loss. It’s worth keeping an eye on whether he puts it back on once he returns to the United States.

The Mavs are set for an interesting offseason too, with Kyrie Irving’s future still in the air. There are also rumors linking them to LeBron James but it’s been reported that the Los Angeles Lakers wouldn’t consider trading the veteran superstar unless Luka is part of the package.
