Really impressive stuff, imho.

I'm just making a good guess.
Big difference is he doesn't seem to have the baditude that Jabari does. Even if he's never lockdown, you can get away with guys that may not be the best defenders but at least understand and try to conform with team concepts and schemes if they're dropping 20+ on the other end.

He has this move where he drives to the rim and then he makes it looks like he is taking a floater but instead he fakes it and dishes out a perfect pass the player standing in corner. That single play killed Wolves on friday. Mavs ran it many times and it did work like a charm Whenever Luka did this play, he drew a lot of attention (almost 2-3 players were surrounding him) & in that process, the player in corner was open. Offensively, kid is just sensationally talented.

What I don’t get is that Doncic has taken 8 shots over 43 feet which you can find in the shooting index at basketball reference but the same website has him as attempting 1 heave for the season.
Are there classifications of a heave literally the type of shot rather than a distance I wonder?
Maybe 50+ feet with the actual motion of a heave rather than a standard jump shot.
Confusing to say the least anyway.
in the glossary on BBRef say:
"Heave attempts (beyond half-court)"
but Doncic has made 5 shot over 62ft so maybe BBRef heave attempt is not correct
Attempted 5 you mean?
Yeah it makes no sense at all, half court is like 47 feet yet 1 heave but 7 shots over 47 feet :s

You can be more than 47 feet from the basket and still be ahead of the halfcourt line. Pythagorean theorem my dude.

Priceless.

Amazing. Saving grace is that Ayton looks solid also.

Can be 53 at least. Is A²+B²=C² not a thing in Italy?

Yes it can. It can't be more than 50 meters, but it can be up to 52.23 feet.
