Kendrick Perkins, an ESPN analyst and former NBA player, recently expressed his criticism towards Luka Doncic, the star player of the Dallas Mavericks. Perkins stated that Doncic needs to improve his leadership skills and defense and take more responsibility for his team’s underperformance this season.
Although Doncic has been an exceptional offensive player for the Mavericks this season, the team’s performance has not been up to par, and they face the risk of not making it to the playoffs. According to Perkins, it’s crucial for Doncic to take on a leadership role and enhance his defensive skills.
“When I watch Luka, I get so disturbed by his body language. Not only towards the officiating but towards his teammates. The pouting, the hanging of the head, going to the media,” Perkins said on ESPN’s “FIrst Take“ show.
He added, “It’s easy to say it’s Kyrie’s fault or that J-Kidd doesn’t know what he’s doing. At what point do we start pointing the finger at Luka?”
Perkins also criticized Doncic’s defensive effort, claiming that he needs to do more on that end of the court. “When are you gonna be accountable and say ‘I am tired of getting picked on? I’m gonna do more on the defensive side… I could at least give effort’,” Perkins said.
