Since entering the NBA, Luka Doncic has consistently showcased a level of athleticism and skill that has made him one of the most exciting players to watch. Although he failed to lift a championship trophy throughout his career, his dominant performances have left an indelible mark on the team and its fans.

In a 2023 episode of the “All the Smoke” podcast, former NBA champion Chandler Parsons shared his thoughts on the Mavs’ superstar. Parsons, who had the privilege of seeing Luka’s skills up close, described him as this generation’s Magic Johnson due to his unique control of the game.

“Luka, I feel like, is this generation’s Magic,” Chandler said.

Parsons later highlighted Luka’s incredible ability to dominate without necessarily relying on traditional athletic explosiveness. Parsons also noted that Luka brings an element of joy to the game, much like Magic did during his playing days.

“He does some of the craziest stuff in practice, and the dude does it laughing. Like Magic. That’s why I say like Magic because his personality is always laughs and smiles and love. He’s easygoing. He’s special,” he added.
