Lakers Jaxson Hayes and Luka Doncic are developing a bond, with Hayes working to join Doncic on the Slovenian national team.

The 25-year-old center says, “Getting that connection and chemistry with Luka would be awesome.” Slovenia is coming off a quarterfinal finish in EuroBasket this past summer.

Rachel Nichols believes Luka Doncic will have a better chance of winning the MVP in the 2025-26 season because of his improved conditioning.

Luka Doncic spoke after the LA Lakers’ preseason closer against the Sacramento Kings about what the team was missing, and one star believes he has the answer.

Jaxson Hayes really likes being teammates with Luka Dončić. The Los Angeles Lakers center confirmed on Sunday that he is pursuing a Slovenian passport so he can team up with Dončić on the national team:

Jaxson Hayes, lamenting USA Basketball's lack of open tryouts, is keen to play with Lakers teammate Luka Doncic on the Slovenian national team, which allows one naturalized citizen on its roster for international competitions.

Look, I get it. Fantasy basketball season is here, and you’re probably wondering if Luka Doncic is worth your first-round pick after that whole Lakers trade fiasco last season.

After the game, Luka Doncic and Dennis Smith Jr. shared a lighthearted moment. The Clip went viral and got a lot of public attention.
