Missed free throws, complaining to the refs non stop... and some also point out looking fat.
It's crazy how year on year it feels like nothing changes.
Context: Slovenia got knocked out against a farmers team.
He needs to mature, and nothing brings maturity more than failure.
Luka never failed, he won everything at Real, won the EB in '17, in the Olympics he barely lost to a much better team in the semis and in Dallas he always performed above expectation, I guess the game for 4th place could be considered a failure.
He's a 23 y/o who have been cuddled by the media and regarded as the anointed since he was 16, it's astonishing how he kept his head until now given his age, but this is new situation for him, I hope people in his surrounding help him overcome it.
