Luka Doncic, the 19-year old Slovenian prospect, helped Real Madrid win the Euroleague title. Doncic scored 15 points and had 4 assists and 3 rebounds in the championship game. While it was not his best performance of the season, he played an instrumental role for Real Madrid. When asked about his next move, Doncic said he would announce his decision "soon" but wanted to celebrate the title with his team first. Doncic is considered the number two prospect for the upcoming NBA draft and teams will be watching his decision closely.

BELGRADE, Serbia -- Eight months after helping Slovenia to its first European
Championship, Luka Doncic added a Euroleague title to his ever-growing
mantel, which now also includes the Euroleague MVP and Euroleague Final
Four MVP awards.
The 19-year-old, who is currently slated as the No. 2 prospect on the ESPN Top
100, scored 15 points on 8 field goal attempts, with 4 assists and 3 rebounds in
29 minutes in a tense and tactical championship game in which Real Madrid
defeated defending Euroleague champions Fenerbahce 85-80.
EDITOR'S PICKS
It was not Doncic's finest performance of the season in a stagnant, physical and
at times ugly affair, but he played an instrumental role regardless over the
weekend, as evidenced by being named the youngest-ever Final Four MVP
following the game.
When asked by ESPN following Sunday's victory what his next move is, Doncic
said: "I will tell about all at the right time. Right now I just want to celebrate
with my team. Soon I will tell."

Luka Doncic leads Real Madrid to
Euroleague title, will reveal NBA
decision 'soon'

Doncic played the entire fourth quarter until fouling out with 39 seconds left,
again playing more minutes than anyone on Real Madrid. He was asked to
handle the ball and play point guard for virtually every moment he was on the
floor. He struggled at times with the size and athleticism of Fenerbahce, the
best defensive team in the Euroleague, but also showed remarkable poise and
confidence in a nervous and often sloppy game that was played almost strictly
in the half court. Doncic's size, strength, ballhandling and knack for drawing
fouls proved invaluable, and his team almost collapsed in the final minute after
he was disqualified.
Doncic's next destination was a focal point on many a conversation over the
course of the weekend. It still remains to be seen which NBA team will draft
him. The growing consensus among NBA decision-makers in attendance at
Stark Arena in Belgrade is that the teams drafting behind the Phoenix Suns at
No. 1, the Sacramento Kings and Atlanta Hawks are likely to pass on European
prodigy in favor of American frontcourt players. The question remains whether
a team will trade up into the top three to snag Doncic, or if he will fall to the No.
4 (Memphis) or even the No. 5 pick (Dallas) after being heavily scouted in the
Euroleague playoffs against Panathinaikos and mostly struggling.
At 19, Luka Doncic is the youngest player to win both the Euroleague and Euroleague Final Four MVP awards.
