Luka Dončić, the 25-year-old Slovenian guard for the Dallas Mavericks, is averaging 28.9 points, 8.6 rebounds and 7.9 assists per game through the first 11 games of the 2024-25 NBA regular season, leading the league in scoring.[1][2]
Dončić, who joined the Mavericks as the No. 3 overall pick in the 2018 NBA Draft after stints with Real Madrid in Europe, signed a five-year, $215 million supermax contract extension with Dallas in August 2021.[3][4]
The Mavericks, who reached the NBA Finals last season before losing to the Boston Celtics, sit at 7-4 in the Western Conference standings as of November 13, 2024.[1][5]
Off the court, Dončić has been in a relationship with Slovenian Anamaria Goltes since their teenage years in Ljubljana. The couple became engaged in June 2022 and welcomed a daughter later that year.[6]
Dončić began his professional career at age 13 with youth teams in Slovenia before moving to Real Madrid's youth system and making his senior debut for the club at 16.[6]
