When asked about his relationship with the current Kings guard and former Euroleague champion, Doncic said “We are friends, he is a great player, I could learn a lot (from him)”.
Bogdanovic told Movistar from Spain “It will be nice to have him, but you never know. He might go number one.”
The 19-year-old Doncic now adds Euroleague champion to his long list of accolades including Euroleague MVP and Euroleague Final Four MVP. He has yet to declare for the NBA Draft, telling the media, “I will tell about all at the right time. Right now I just want to celebrate with my team. Soon I will tell”.
