I am writing a Doncic piece (not in English), and I am looking for information that was mentioned in this thread a couple months ago. Both in relation to his athletic ability. He participated in a measurement/evaluation maybe one or two years ago that came to the conclusion - with numbers and a depth-in evaluation - that he is very athletic. And I also saw a video a couple of days ago, where someone from a company told that they measured his lateral quickness, and he is actually pretty quick even by NBA standards. I couldn't find neither, but I remember a European poster of ours copy&pasted that long evaluation in one of our previous Doncic threads. Maybe some of you have this stuff bookmarked? Thanks in advance!
Do you mean this?Congratulations to P3 athlete Luka Doncic for being named the unanimous EuroLeague Rising Star Trophy for the 2016-17 season. Luka has put together one of the greatest seasons by a teenager in European basketball history. Not only did Doncic become the youngest player to ever claim MVP of the Round honors in the EuroLeague, he went on to do so four times this season (second most of any player) and helped lead Real Madrid to the Final Four next week in Istanbul. Luka has spent a few weeks at P3 the past two summers. Luka combines outstanding anthropometric measurements, including an 8'9.5" standing reach (88th percentile for NBA guards) and 228.8 lbs of mass with very competitive and improving movement qualities. In the lateral plane, Luka's ability to abduct the hip (1 dev above the mean) allows him to generate Force more efficiently than most NBA players that we've assessed (71st percentile in lateral acceleration). He's become particularly adept in a change-of-direction environment, where his Slide Agility times outpace most NBA Guards tested at P3 and they've improved by roughly 0.25s in the past year. Vertically, Luka ranks better than 73% of NBA guards in height touched during the approach and his improved his countermovement jump by 2 inches in the past year. He's good now, he's still getting better, and he's well within his physical development window!

Wow, that was quick, you are awesome, thank you!
As for the pre-draft video with some extra footage and information from the same company, this is it:
Doncic planned to do the same tests this summer, but this might have changed if Mavs think there is no use for that.
BTW, you can post the link to your piece anyway.
