Many outlets have Doncic as the top overall prospect in this draft, and we have long been a fan of his game here at SDS as well. While the track record of top-tier European prospects is mixed, one need only look at the major success stories (Dirk Nowitzki, Kristaps Porzingis) to see that there is immense talent available via overseas players – but a team must be willing to take that chance.
Luka Doncic looks to be a slam-dunk prospect and passing on him – especially if he falls to 3rd overall – would be a monumental mistake for this front office led by GM Travis Schlenk and overseen by owner Tony Ressler.
