Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic won the 2019 Rookie of the Year award. The Mavs star put on a show from start to finish last season and is looking to take it to another level in 2019-20.
Doncic says he's been training five days a week and on the weekends this offseason. The Mavs' floor general admits he wants to do “everything better than I’m used to” entering his second year in NBA.
MAVS.COM: You obviously had a very solid rookie season with averages of 21.2 points, 7.8 rebounds and six assists per game. But what areas of your game would you like to improve going into your second NBA season?
LUKA: Just everything. Better shots, better passes, rebounds. Everything. Just do everything better than I’m used to.
MAVS.COM: What steps have you taken in order to facilitate those improvements? Are you working out more?
LUKA: I’m practicing five days a week. And the weekends, too.
As a rookie, Luka Doncic averaged 21.2 points, 7.8 rebounds and 6.0 assists while shooting 42.7 percent from the field, 32.7 percent from beyond the arc and 71.3 percent from the free-throw line.
Doncic recorded 24 double-doubles and eight triple-doubles. It should be fun to see what improvements Doncic makes as a sophomore in the NBA after a year under his belt.
