Luka Doncic has remained silent regarding the stream of leaks from the Dallas Mavericks that have criticized his weight and conditioning.
However, according to sources who spoke with ESPN, these remarks have only fueled his determination to prove doubters wrong.
“A beast was awakened inside him,” one source stated, emphasizing how the scrutiny has served as motivation for the star player.
During the All-Star break, Doncic took a trip to Cabo, where he balanced relaxation with rigorous training.
Despite being sidelined from the All-Star Game due to a calf injury, he remained committed to his fitness, working out for two hours daily with Scott Brooks on a private outdoor court.
The time away from the spotlight provided him with a mental reset.
“Honestly, I was getting my mind off basketball a little bit,” Doncic admitted, highlighting the importance of stepping away from the game while still maintaining his conditioning.
