In a FULL SEND podcast, Cuban looked at Slovenian wunderkind’s potential. When asked where he ranks Doncic among the best players in today’s NBA, Cuban didn’t take long to respond.
“Top 1 or 2. He’s a beast. He’s so good and he’s adding stuff to his game this summer. I mean he’s gonna come back even better,” the 63-year-old said.

Those 18-year-olds we’re talking about? They don’t care about Jordan. They know he was great. They know he’s one of the best players ever. But they’ve never seen him play ball. He’s out of sight and out of mind. As far as they know, he’s the guy that pays LaMelo Ball.
That’s why there’s a youth movement going on at Jordan Brand. The brand needs a new face. They need a guy. They grew up with Zion Williamson. They’ve seen Jayson Tatum ascend. They know Luka Doncic is one of the best 5 players in the world. Paolo could be that for them, too. That’s why it’s best to jump on the bandwagon as early as possible. That’s what Jordan Brand is doing. -via

“He is a world star. But it’s relaxed atmosphere between us. He enjoys it. You’d be surprised how humble he is,” Blazic explained. “I am sure that it will be like this in the future as well,” added the Slovenian guard. “But on the court… Well, you can see for yourself,” Blazic concluded. -via
