Over the weekend, NBA on TNT dropped an excellent video piece chronicling Luka Doncic and Dzanan Musa’s rise through the ranks of European basketball, as well as the extraordinarily high number of hoopers that come from the former Yugoslavia.

It’s a really interesting glimpse into the rookies’ lives. Specifically, we go to Slovenia with Doncic as he and his mother reflect on moving to Madrid in Luka’s adolescent years, and his rapid growth from basketball prospect to EuroLeague MVP and champion at the domestic, continental, and national team level. We also get a few pretty great shots of Doncic’s car very early on.
