    Abridged version of the audio documentary about Euroleague MVP and NBA rookie phenom Luka Dončić

    This is the abridged version of the audio documentary Luka Dončić: Becoming Wonderboy.

    Midway through the Slovenian national basketball team’s first practice session in the summer of 2017, a month and a half before Eurobasket 2017 started, Luka Dončić made his mark. The squad just started playing five-on-five and when Slovenia’s best center Gašper Vidmar attempted his first dunk of training camp, Dončić swatted the ball away. The hall fell silent. A few nervous glances here and there. And a lot of smiles among the coaching staff. They knew that they had something special on their hands. A kid who can play. And dares to challenge the best. He might have been the youngest player on the team, but that didn’t stop Luka from being Luka.
