LeBron James Finally Admits How Luka Doncic And Him Are Similar; Leaves NBA Fans In Utter Disbelief

There have been great scorers in the NBA. There have some exceptional passers as well. And there have been excellent rebounders of the ball as well.

LeBron James is a generational player who stuffs the stat sheet across all the categories. And the way he does it is phenomenal. James could have easily averaged a triple-double his entire career if he wanted to. Very few players have been able to follow in LeBron’s footsteps. But maybe the NBA has another player like LeBron, who has started his career in the same path as the King.

Luka Doncic made his NBA debut back in 2018 and, since then, he has taken the league by storm. He may not be as athletic and fast as LeBron, but he stuffs the stat sheet in every way possible. His style of play is very similar to LeBron’s as they both are deadly scorers who can drop 40 at any time. But their main objective is to keep teammates involved and get everyone going.

LeBron was Luka’s idol while growing up, and LeBron has praised Luka at every step of his career. Bron has admitted Luka is one of his favorite players to watch in the league. At the all-star weekend, LeBron was asked about Luka. Bron says, “The way he plays the game reminds me of the way I play the game. We’re triple threats. We rebound, we pass, which is the number one thing on our mind. … and we’ll put 40 on you too if you disrespect us.”
