The Slovenian might be playing Overwatch- a team-based shooting game, and is not exactly happy with a few things. Doncic took to twitter to say how finding a game can sometimes be frustrating. “The worst thing in overwatch is 10 min search for the game and then somebody leave the game,” Doncic tweeted on Wednesday. Video games might not be the only getaway for Doncic. He also seems to be spending some time on Netflix. He tweeted asking for suggestions of good TV Shows to watch on Netflix, also talking about how eagerly he has been waiting for Money Heist- a Netflix series- in another tweet. LUKA DONCIC POSTED A VIDEO WITH RACIST COMMENTS, LATER APOLOGIZED Twitter hasn’t been all fun for Doncic. Earlier on Wednesday, Doncic had posted a video with some racist comments. Not long after, he realized what he had posted and apologized in another tweet, saying he posted it unknowingly.

<p class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9">He took Spain's ACB League and EuroLeague by storm as a teenager for Real Madrid, winning EuroLeague MVP at 19 before making the jump to the NBA. Doncic has averaged over 25 points, 8 rebounds and 8 assists the past three seasons, earning back-to-back All-NBA First Team nods.</p>

<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Luka Doncic's early life</b></h2>
Luka Doncic was born and brought up in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Interestingly, Luka first touched a basketball when he was just seven months old as his father, Sasa, was a professional player turned coach. The Slovenian's love for the game increased as he grew older and he continued to improve at a rapid pace as well.

Doncic started playing for his hometown club Union Olimpija and often practiced with kids much older than him because of his advanced skill set. When he was 13, Luka took a huge step in his life and career, when he moved to Madrid, Spain to play for Real Madrid. He graduated high school in Spain and did not go to college.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Luka Doncic's family and personal life</b></h2>
Luka Doncic was born on February 28, 1999 to Mirjam Poterbin and Sasa Doncic. His parents separated and subsequently divorced in 2018 when the Dallas Mavericks star was nine years old. The custody and legal guardianship of Luka was reportedly granted to his mother.

Mirjam was a model who even participated in the Miss Slovenia pageant in 1993. After her modeling career, she ran a beauty salon with her mother. <span class="LrzXr kno-fv wHYlTd z8gr9e">Sasa Doncic</span>Â played basketball for 17 years and has multiple accolades to his name. He has also played for the Slovenian national team. After retiring in 2010, <span class="LrzXr kno-fv wHYlTd z8gr9e">SaÅ¡a DonÄiÄ‡ </span>started his coaching career in 2022.

According to multiple reports, Luka has been in a long-term relationship with the Slovenian model Anamaria Goltes. Goltes is also from Ljubljana, Slovenia, and went to the same school as Luka when she was young. However, the couple first met in Croatia during a vacation when they were just 12. Goltes is a model who has a massive following on social media. In 2016, Anamaria moved to the U.S. to pursue her modeling career.

The year also marked the start of a romantic relationship between the two childhood friends. The couple reportedly hit a rough patch in 2018 but are still going strong. <span style="font-weight: 400">In July 2023, Doncic got engaged to his longtime girlfriend Anamaria Goltes, and became a father to a baby girl named Gabriela.</span>
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Luka Doncic's Net Worth 2024</b></h2>
Luka Doncic signed a five-year $215 million contract extension with theÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/dallas-mavericks/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Dallas Mavericks</a>Â in 2021, which earned him over $37 million for the 2022-23 season. The massive contract will fetch him over $40 million for the next season and he will receive an average salary of $43 million. So far, Doncic has reportedly made over $69 million in NBA salaries. Luka has an estimated net worth of $25 million, according to various reports. Furthermore, the combo guard also makes millions every year from his endorsements and partnerships.
<h2 class="jsx-cb26a7af5694ead9" style="text-align: center"><b>Luka Doncic'</b><b>s basketball career</b></h2>
Luka Doncic grabbed the attention of major teams in Europe after impressing with his displays for local club Union Olimpija. In 2012, Real Madrid came calling and signed Luka for a five-year contract when he was just 13. The young star continued his development while playing for the under-16s and led the team to a Minicopa Endesa win in 2013. For his unreal performances, Doncic was named the MVP of the under-16 championship. He carried on his impressive development with the under-18s in the next few seasons.

During the 2014-15 season, Doncic made his professional debut for Real Madrid at the age of just 16. In the next season, he became a regular for the senior team. The years that followed saw the dominance of Doncic grow in the Spanish league. In the 2017-18 season, he led Real Madrid to a EuroLeague triumph and was named the EuroLeague MVP for his displays. He also helped the team clinch the Liga ACB title and took home the Liga ACB MVP honors as well.

Doncic then declared for the 2018 NBA draft. TheÂ <a class="jsx-2b55705d932ea6e9" href="https://www.essentiallysports.com/category/nba/atlanta-hawks/" target="_self" rel="noopener">Atlanta Hawks</a>Â selected him as the 3rd overall pick and then traded him on the same day for Trae Young who was drafted as the 5th pick by the Dallas Mavericks. Doncic hit the ground running for the Mavs and won the Rookie of the Year award, averaging 21.2 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 6 assists per game. He astonished everyone with his maturity on the hardwood and the ability to control the pace of the game despite being very young. Doncic made his first-ever NBA All-Star appearance in his sophomore year. He has made the team for four straight years ever since.

Doncic led the Mavs to the Western Conference Finals for the first time since the 2010-11 season. However, he could not help the team past the eventual champions the Golden State Warriors. Given the teams' heroics in the playoffs last season, there were huge expectations from Luka and the Mavericks for the 2022-23 season. Doncic started the season great and was in the MVP race for most of the campaign. However, the team struggled massively in the concluding stages of the season and failed to make it to the playoffs eventually.

<span style="font-weight: 400">In January 2023, DonÄiÄ‡ was awarded the Western Conference Player of the Month award for his play during December, the third of his career. He was also named a Western Conference starter for the 2023 NBA All-Star Game, marking his fourth consecutive selection. </span><span style="font-weight: 400">During a game in March, Kyrie Irving scored 40 points while his teammate, Luka DonÄiÄ‡, scored 42 points. It was the first time in Dallas franchise history that two players scored 40 points in the same game.Â </span>

<span style="font-weight: 400">In March, he surpassed Mark Aguirreâ€™s previous record for the most 30-point games in a season in Mavericks history. Following this, i</span><span style="font-weight: 400">n October, DonÄiÄ‡</span><span style="font-weight: 400"> became the first player in Mavericks history to put up a 30-point triple-double in a season-opening game. </span><span style="font-weight: 400">On the 25th of December 2023, </span><span style="font-weight: 400">DonÄiÄ‡</span><span style="font-weight: 400"> became the sixth player to reach 10,000 career regular-season points before turning 25, tied Bob McAdoo for reaching 10,000 points in the 7th-fewest games in NBA history, and became the quickest to 10,000 points among active players with 358 games. This is the fastest since Michael Jordan. He also tied for 3rd-most points for Christmas Day games, behind Bernard King and Wilt Chamberlain.</span>

Luka Doncic founded the Luka Doncic Foundation to help children in need. The foundation aims to improve the health and well-being of children through play. It reportedly provides play therapy, play access, play environments, and play challenges to kids. So far, Luka has helped many children in need with his foundation. In December 2022, Doncic accomplished extraordinary philanthropic and outreach work which earned him a nomination for the NBA Cares Community Assist Award. Recently, he made the day of a young fan by offering him a trip to watch his favorite stars play in the NBA All-Star game. Over the years, he has also made contributions to other organizations such as The Dallas Mavericks Foundation and The Dirk Nowitzki Foundation.

Doncic is a huge car enthusiast as well and has some expensive cars in his collection. According to reports, he has an Audi A7 ($69,200), a Porsche Panamera ($109,000), a Porsche 911 Turbo S ($216,100), and the Mansory Lamborghini Urus ($221,506).

<span style="font-weight: 400">With his incredible skill at such a young age, 24, most experts believe it is only a matter of time before Doncic wins his first championship and gets fitted for his first championship ring.

Doncic started playing for his hometown club Union Olimpija and often practiced with kids much older than him because of his advanced skill set. When he was 13, Luka took a huge step in his life and career, when he moved to Madrid, Spain to play for Real Madrid. He graduated high school in Spain and did not go to college. Luka Doncic&#8217;s family and personal life Luka Doncic was born on February 28, 1999 to Mirjam Poterbin and Sasa Doncic. His parents separated and subsequently divorced in 2018 when the Dallas Mavericks star was nine years old. The custody and legal guardianship of Luka was reportedly granted to his mother. Mirjam was a model who even participated in the Miss Slovenia pageant in 1993. After her modeling career, she ran a beauty salon with her mother. Sasa DoncicÂ played basketball for 17 years and has multiple accolades to his name. He has also played for the Slovenian national team. After retiring in 2010, SaÅ¡a DonÄiÄ‡ started his coaching career in 2022.  USA Today via Reuters According to multiple reports, Luka has been in a long-term relationship with the Slovenian model Anamaria Goltes. Goltes is also from Ljubljana, Slovenia, and went to the same school as Luka when she was young. However, the couple first met in Croatia during a vacation when they were just 12. Goltes is a model who has a massive following on social media. In 2016, Anamaria moved to the U.S. to pursue her modeling career. The year also marked the start of a romantic relationship between the two childhood friends. The couple reportedly hit a rough patch in 2018 but are still going strong. In July 2023, Doncic got engaged to his longtime girlfriend Anamaria Goltes, and became a father to a baby girl named Gabriela.

Luka has an estimated net worth of $25 million, according to various reports. Furthermore, the combo guard also makes millions every year from his endorsements and partnerships. Luka Doncic&#8217;s basketball career Luka Doncic grabbed the attention of major teams in Europe after impressing with his displays for local club Union Olimpija. In 2012, Real Madrid came calling and signed Luka for a five-year contract when he was just 13. The young star continued his development while playing for the under-16s and led the team to a Minicopa Endesa win in 2013. For his unreal performances, Doncic was named the MVP of the under-16 championship. He carried on his impressive development with the under-18s in the next few seasons. During the 2014-15 season, Doncic made his professional debut for Real Madrid at the age of just 16. In the next season, he became a regular for the senior team. The years that followed saw the dominance of Doncic grow in the Spanish league. In the 2017-18 season, he led Real Madrid to a EuroLeague triumph and was named the EuroLeague MVP for his displays. He also helped the team clinch the Liga ACB title and took home the Liga ACB MVP honors as well.  USA Today via Reuters Doncic then declared for the 2018 NBA draft. TheÂ Atlanta HawksÂ selected him as the 3rd overall pick and then traded him on the same day for Trae Young who was drafted as the 5th pick by the Dallas Mavericks. Doncic hit the ground running for the Mavs and won the Rookie of the Year award, averaging 21.2 points, 7.8 rebounds, and 6 assists per game. He astonished everyone with his maturity on the hardwood and the ability to control the pace of the game despite being very young. Doncic made his first-ever NBA All-Star appearance in his sophomore year. He has made the team for four straight years ever since. Doncic led the Mavs to the Western Conference Finals for the first time since the 2010-11 season. However, he could not help the team past the eventual champions the Golden State Warriors. Given the teams&#8217; heroics in the playoffs last season, there were huge expectations from Luka and the Mavericks for the 2022-23 season. Doncic started the season great and was in the MVP race for most of the campaign. However, the team struggled massively in the concluding stages of the season and failed to make it to the playoffs eventually. In January 2023, DonÄiÄ‡ was awarded the Western Conference Player of the Month award for his play during December, the third of his career. He was also named a Western Conference starter for the 2023 NBA All-Star Game, marking his fourth consecutive selection. During a game in March, Kyrie Irving scored 40 points while his teammate, Luka DonÄiÄ‡, scored 42 points. It was the first time in Dallas franchise history that two players scored 40 points in the same game.Â  In March, he surpassed Mark Aguirreâ€™s previous record for the most 30-point games in a season in Mavericks history. Following this, in October, DonÄiÄ‡ became the first player in Mavericks history to put up a 30-point triple-double in a season-opening game. On the 25th of December 2023, DonÄiÄ‡ became the sixth player to reach 10,000 career regular-season points before turning 25, tied Bob McAdoo for reaching 10,000 points in the 7th-fewest games in NBA history, and became the quickest to 10,000 points among active players with 358 games. This is the fastest since Michael Jordan. He also tied for 3rd-most points for Christmas Day games, behind Bernard King and Wilt Chamberlain.
