-SACRAMENTO-

The news is flying high and fast. Let’s see if we can’t round it all up:

-Luka Doncic struggled mightily in the Euroleague Finals

-The Suns are thinking of offering Devin Booker for the #2 pick to grab both Ayton and Doncic

-Luka Doncic also won the MVP of both the league and the Final Four

-The Kings and Hawks could pass on Doncic in favor of American players

-Luka Doncic may stay over in Europe rather than play for Sacramento

-Doncic may forgo NBA to play in the Big Baller League under the name “The Donger”

Here’s the thing, only two of the above “sourced rumors” are made up. One of them should be pretty obvious. As for the others- every single one was written by a respected writer in a respected publication/website.

It’s silly season folks. Hold on for the next month.
