Nikola Jokic's Denver Nuggets face an uncertain future, while Luka Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks are solidifying themselves as a formidable force in the NBA.

Luka Doncic never played college basketball, but if he did, we now know where. The 5-time NBA All-Star for the Dallas Mavericks told Overtime TV that the University of Arizona would have been home had he attended school in the U.

In another life, Luca Doncic may have played for the Arizona Wildcats. Those are his words, not ours. In a social media video posted by sports network Overtime, Doncic was asked which school he would have attended had he chosen to play college basketball.

Former NBA player Nick Young referred to Luka Doncic as a “real hooper” in a post on X, formerly Twitter, on Monday. So why did Young choose to make this claim? Well, to understand the context we must take a look at a post that Young previously shared where he explained what a “hooper” is.

These players include Dirk Nowitzki, Giannis Antetokounmpo, Nikola Jokic, and, of course, Luka Doncic. However, some played in the NCAA first to get acclimated to the American style of play before entering the NBA Draft.
