The Dallas Mavericks moved up in the 2018 NBA Draft to select Luka Doncic. The Slovenian teenager had already won the EuroLeague MVP and led his team to multiple titles, but nobody expected him to take the NBA by storm this quickly. Luka went from Rookie of the Year to MVP candidate before being old enough to legally drink in the United States. It has been an incredible rise that is just beginning.
Doncic has led the Mavs to the playoffs two straight years, but they have been knocked out in the first round by the LA Clippers both times.
