Luka Doncic, the Los Angeles Lakers star, has been surprisingly omitted from a discussion he clearly deserves to be part of.
Through seven seasons in the NBA, Doncic has achieved more than most players can dream of, including five All-NBA First Team nods and a league scoring championship.
He has already established himself as one of the game's all-time greats.
Despite his accomplishments, Doncic was excluded from a survey of NBA general managers' choices for the ideal player to start a franchise with. The top choices were Victor Wembanyama (83.0% of the votes) and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander (13%).
Doncic's omission is a surprising disrespect to his skills and achievements.
