Luka Doncic is now 270 pounds

[Ambrose]

LeBron going to take Luka to Miami for his annual HGH refill, he'll be in shape in no time

HGH isn't magic. Luka still needs to exercise

The dude who led the league in minutes played and then went to the Olympics isn't lacking in exercise. It's 100% diet related.

[HomoSapien]

This is not 270 pounds.

He is 6'6. 270 lbs...even 300 lbs. will look different than someone 5'9.

The 6'10" Shawn Kemp would like to have a word with you on that.

Water weight can move the scales a lot especially when your body is that large. 270 pounds would be pretty noticeable obesity and I don't see that with Luka. More like a beer belly and a lot of high quality food. Not a fast food type bod.

how did fatty get to the nba finals just now, if he was lighter would he be nba champion

270 lbs when you're 6 foot 6 is not as noticable as one might think. I'm about 6 foot 235 and I don't look at all over weight. Another 35 lbs on another 6 inches would not be obese at all, just out of shape. You are right about water weight but the two biggest factors when gaining water weight are alcohol and salt. A night of hard drinking with wings and fries will easily put a bunch of water weight on you. Consistently drinking will teach your body to hold both the water and the salt.

I asked one of the leading AI models to give me an estimate

Detailed Weight Analysis for a 6'6" Individual
Using structural analysis and proportional scaling, the estimated weight of the individual in question is approximately 240 lbs. This conclusion is based on the following measurable factors:

1. Structural Proportions and Frame Analysis
The subject exhibits a broad shoulder width relative to torso dimensions, indicative of a naturally solid frame.
The waist-to-shoulder ratio is within a range associated with balanced musculature rather than excessive fat accumulation.
The leg-to-torso proportion suggests an evenly distributed mass, reducing the likelihood of underestimation.
2. Height-Scaled Weight Estimation
Proportional weight increases in taller individuals follow a squared height function rather than a linear one.
When extrapolating mass distributions from known body structures, the calculated scaling suggests a weight range of 230-250 lbs for an individual of this height and apparent composition.
The subject’s observed structure and mass distribution align most closely with the 240-lb estimate rather than the extremes of the calculated range.
3. Muscularity and Density Considerations
There is no indication of extreme leanness, which would suggest a significantly lower weight.
Conversely, the subject does not exhibit characteristics of excessive mass or high body fat percentage that would push the weight closer to 260+ lbs.
This places the estimate in the middle of the derived proportional weight range.
Final Conclusion: Estimated Weight ~240 lbs
The given analysis provides a data-supported estimate without overreliance on approximations. Additional refinements could be made with direct volumetric assessment, but within observational and structural scaling, this weight estimation remains highly robust.


I then gave it this image of Zion


1. Structural Proportions and Frame Analysis
The subject has a broader upper body and higher muscle density compared to a standard frame at this height.
The torso appears shorter relative to limb length, which often correlates with a more compact but dense musculature.
Waist-to-shoulder ratio suggests a high lean mass percentage, reducing excess body fat as a dominant factor in weight calculation.
2. Height-Scaled Weight Estimation
The mass scaling function accounts for an increase in both bone density and muscle volume, with a squared height-weight relation.
Individuals with this frame type and muscle-to-fat distribution at this height typically fall within the 250-285 lbs range.
Given the subject's broad structure and apparent muscle mass, the estimate skews toward the higher end of this range rather than the lower.
3. Muscularity and Density Considerations
A muscular composition at this scale typically places body density at ~1.06 g/cm³, significantly above the average mass-to-volume ratio for standard builds.
Given the subject's compact but high-mass frame, the estimated weight centers around 275 lbs, accounting for the observed density and proportions.
Final Conclusion: Estimated Weight ~275 lbs
This estimate maintains rigor based on proportional scaling, structural analysis, and volumetric mass distribution. The weight is consistent with individuals of similar height and body density, providing a robust approximation.

I drink a ton and use a lot of salt on my food. I am a bulky guy, broad chest, thick legs and big boned. I do have a beer gut but weigh way more then I look. I am 5 foot 10 and when I ask people how much they think I weigh they say 175, I gotta be 50 pounds heavier then that. This is interesting to me.

Do 1 Mavs narrative from the pr machine died, lets spin a new one. Wonder when they get so far down the list that the truth comes out, that nicos ego grown so huge that incase they win everyone on the team will been brought in by him so he can brag about it. Pretty sure powell will be gone before dl, if it so costs a 1st. Nico is a fing snake

[Apz]

Didnt he show up to nicos bday party? Luka prefers to stay home and got a kid. Guess that lifestyle doesnt fit nico

Let me put it this way, if you were to stop drinking beer (or the harder stuff) cut back on salt and drink a couple liters of water a day you'd be down 15 pounds in 2-3 weeks easy. Without any real exercise. Alcohol and salt both dehydrate you (though of course you do need some salt, especially in the heat). Both trick your body into thinking it's likely to dehydrate badly so the body responds by holding onto extra water. That's most of what a beer belly is, just water weight. Cut those two out, super hydrate with decent water and your body will start purging the water it's holding. Last time I had to do this it took about 2 days before I started waking up 3 times a night to take one of those marathon pisses that just keeps going... The body was purging water .

No but its not "in shape" either. He has a noticeable muffin top , he can get in great shape if he really wants too all the tools at his disposal

It's not just the water weight from booze. When do most people drink? At night. So what happens? The body metabolizes the alcohol first before the food in your system. By the time it gets to burning food, it's while you're sleeping when the metabolic rate is lowest. Hence the extra body fat on most people who drink alcohol, especially those who drink daily.

I bet near half of the obesity problem in adults in this country is due in large part to alcohol abuse. It's for the reason above plus many people make bad food choices while drinking.

The only thing you can tell from this is Luka is much better dressed.

[Kobeskillz]

He's not fat in regular human terms but for a top athlete hes probaby fatter than he should be.

Kinda how like 35 is young but old as heck in sports.

[WWSRD]

My god does Pelinka dress LA.

You're indoors but you still need to wear that little half-zip trendy leather jacket. Jus trying a little too hard.

[FrobeBryant]

Sheesh so many Luka to Lakers copium threads

[Jasen777]

You can tell Luka's weight pretty well from his face. He's been heavier than this, this is maybe 10 pounds over his ideal playing weight.
