Luka Doncic has been looking trimmed up in recent videos and photos of him working out. Doncic‘s recent intense training might be initiated by the Dallas Mavericks front office in an attempt to cut the superstar’s weight.

The Slovenian superstar is one of the most animated players on the court, but he also rocks a notorious reputation regarding his fitness level for the sport. The Dallas Mavericks reportedly sat down with Doncic to discuss his shape for the upcoming season.

Luka Doncic is virtually unstoppable on the NBA court, but his weight has proved to be a huge defensive liability. The organization found enough shortcomings in Doncic’s defensive capabilities to suggest a change in his conditioning drawbacks. The Mavericks are also approaching this situation with a competitive structure in mind. It is worth noting that Doncic recently signed a 5-year / $215,159,700 contract with the team and the organization would want the star to be in the best of his shape.

A similar incident happened in 2022. The 6-foot-7 guard turned up in exceptional shape for the Euro Basket, leading the Slovenian team to the Quarter Finals. However, Doncic was back to his regular season shape by the time he returned to Dallas for training camp.

The team’s idea also correlates to their championship aspirations given that Dallas made huge off-season moves. The team resigned Kyrie Irving and stole Grant Williams from the Boston Celtics and have a legitimate shot at a Championship.

Fans react to Dallas Mavericks’ discussions with Luka Doncic

The intense workout videos and pictures sparked interaction online with Doncic’s new conditioning regime, giving new hope to Dallas fans. However, online trolls were quick to clown the Mavericks and Doncic about the situation. Some fans also pointed out that Mavericks should be worried about their roster construction instead of worrying about their star’s weight.

The NBA majority is still not convinced that the Slovenian can up his conditioning. A recent video of Doncic’s reaction workout did not help either, the star was seen barely moving out of his feet during a drill prompting fans to clown the star.

The Maverick’s star will certainly have to work on his fitness shape for the upcoming season with the Western Conference getting much more competitive. The 24-year-old is also set to represent Slovenia in the upcoming FIBA World Cup in August.
