Los Angeles Lakers’ Busy Offseason Draws Encouraging Review From Luka Doncic’s Father
· Yahoo Sports
The Los Angeles Lakers are among the busiest teams this offseason as they continue building around Luka Doncic following LeBron James’ departure. During a recent interview with Mozzart Sport, Sasa Doncic, Luka’s dad, is among those who are curious about how the team will fare this upcoming season.
“They were there (Slovenia minicamp), they had a crazy and unforgettable time, at least that’s what they say. I don’t know, time will tell how it will be. I can’t wait to see what happens. My focus is honestly on Ilirija, but of course I support the Lakers because of Luka, and whether Rob Pelinka has built a good team, we’ll see,” the older Doncic stated.

In return, they added Quentin Grimes, Jaden Hardy, Walker Kessler, Kevon Looney, Sandro Mamukelashvili, Collin Sexton, Matisse Thybulle, and Ziaire Williams while re-signing Austin Reaves to a new four-year contract.
As Sasa mentioned, Luka held a minicamp in Slovenia for his Los Angeles Lakers teammates to prepare for the 2026-27 campaign, and the fans couldn’t help but notice the 27-year-old star’s svelte physique.
