“Luka is the closest thing to Larry Bird…He’s phenomenal”- NBA Analyst asserts Luka Doncic is No.1 player under 25 in NBA, names him ‘baby Bird’ for dominating on court like 3X NBA Champion

  • by

It hasn’t taken long for Dallas Mavericks winger Luka Doncic to blossom into a superstar. One of the most dangerous offensive players in the league, Doncic has turned heads with his ability every night. He became one of the faces of the league at just 23 years old.

Doncic doesn’t come off right away as a player who should be a dominant force in the game of basketball. He’s not the most athletic but uses his feeling for the game and basketball intelligence to dominate opponents. It’s part of the reason why Doncic has drawn comparisons to Boston Celtics Hall of Fame forward Larry Bird.

Speaking on “Undisputed,” analyst Shannon Sharpe said that Luka is the closest thing the game of basketball has today to Bird. He even goes on to say that when it’s all said and done, Luka will “probably be better than Bird!”

“Luka is the closet thing to Larry Bird, and when it’s all said and done, he’ll probably be better than Bird! Luka is the one guy that can give 40 points and 15 assists. He’s phenomenal.”
