Following the conclusion of the NBA Finals, Dallas Mavericks general manager Nico Harrison spoke highly of his team's star man, Luka Doncic. "Luka is a real warrior," said Harrison, noting that the 25-year-old Slovenian showed outstanding stamina and skill despite numerous injuries.
Pressure test
"Without Luka, we wouldn't be where we are with him. That's important to note. We also wouldn't be able to achieve what we want without a better version of him," Harrison emphasized.
Luka Doncic, who became the target of intense attention after Game 3 of the Finals, managed to focus and show his best game in Game 4 of the series. "Look at a guy who had the whole world watching after Game 3, it's a crazy scrutiny, the amount of scrutiny he had to deal with. He was able to focus and do what he did in Game 4. I think that shows his character ", - added the general manager.
The future of Luka Doncic
"He's ready to deal with adversity and I think he's going to continue to get better. He's 25 years old. I think once he gets through the finals, he'll see what he needs to do to show his best side. I think you you'll see a better version of him," Harrison said.
Niko Harrison is sure that Doncic is able to overcome all difficulties and reach a new level of the game. **"He was hurt, but he's a warrior. He's going to fight through all these injuries. That's who he is. He loves to play," said Harrison.
Finals recap and Dallas outlook
Despite the fact that Boston won the NBA Finals, the Dallas Mavericks played a decent game. The team managed to extend the contract of its general manager, Nico Harrison, which shows confidence in his work and vision for the future of the team.
After the NBA Finals, where the Dallas Mavericks showed an outstanding level of play, we can expect further development of the team. With Luka Doncic at the helm, who has already earned a reputation as one of the best players in the league, the Mavericks have every chance of success in the coming seasons.
