The Dallas Mavericks wunderkind was reported weighing a whopping 260 pounds (around 120 kg) at the start of the 2021-2022 NBA season.

"I had a long summer," the guard said back then. "I had the Olympics, took three weeks off, and I relaxed a little bit. Maybe too much. I've just got to get back on track."

"I know I've got to do better," Doncic said at the start of the season. It looks like Luka did get back on track.

According to Tim Mcmahon from ESPN in The Lowe podcast, Doncic is now back to around 240 pounds (108 kg).

"I’m told Luka Doncic is down now into the 240s, kind of close to his rookie weight," McMahon noted.

Doncic is the cornerstone of the Mavericks offense. The Slovenian superstar is averaging 25.6 points, 8.9 rebounds, and 8.9 assists this year, and is one of the prime candidates to receive the MVP trophy.

Although stunning as always, Luka didn't receive any media votes to be an All-Star starter. The NBA All-Star Weekend is scheduled to start on February 18th in Cleveland, Ohio.
