How to stop Luka? Defensive Analysis of Playing Against Doncic



BasketNews video analyst Augustas Šuliauskas takes on the nearly impossible task of finding weaknesses in Luka Doncic's game. You'll see how Slovenian has mastered a step-back game, which is universally agreed to be among the most challenging playing styles to defend against. As you'll see, the most successful option could be to force Doncic to his right and hope for the best. In today's basketball bread and butter - pick and roll - young Slovenian wonder is equally prolific. Luka is especially effective against the pick-and-roll drop defense, while the hedge option seems to be the most viable choice against him. Finally, doubling Luka Doncic appeared to produce positive returns for the Los Angeles Clippers. Forcing Slovenian to give up the ball is always a good idea.
