Luka Dončić Contract Extension Press Conference
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 6 фев 2025
- Luka Dončić, Mark Cuban, Nico Harrison, Jason Kidd, Bill Duffy, and Enrique Villalobos discuss Luka's historic contract - the largest guaranteed rookie contract extension in NBA history - in Slovenia.
NOTE: The first few questions are asked in Slovenian (10:03), but are translated afterward into English. Then there are questions in English (25:15) and Spanish (31:05).
I love Luka's loyalty to Slovenia and Mavericks. He doesn't live in Slovenia since he was 12, but still a great patriot!
He's spending his "wealth" for his community. Young one helping others.
I love too Luka's loyalty to Spain and Real Madrid because of that I love Slovenia team too, and because of that, he will be ETERNAL.
Declined calls for Serbia and Spain,
@@stefandrakche even tho his father is serbian and he lived in Spain between 12 and 19
Hopefully he wont be blindly loyal like Dirk was and in next 20 years maybe got 1 solid team...i am afraid Cuban is a money shark on first place and building team able to win a championship mostly ends in red numbers...so i am afrain Cuban sees him as a cash cow for tge Mavs next 20 years with a team capable only to reach playoffs year again and year again...for now i didn't see any strong sign they have an interest building championship roaster...
If thats the case i hope Luka will be egoistic enough to start pressing the dromt office or if they do nothing he demands a trade
much love and support from the Philippines 🇵🇭
Luka Magic! Not a Mavs fan, but I will be watching. Luka is just getting started.
Same Luka is for myself being from the UK and having no team affiliation one of the reasons I love basketball. I follow LeBron I know people will hate on that but he was why I got into watching the NBA . When he retires Luka will defo be the one I'll follow after I love his play, attitude and all round person.
People in Slovenia are honored and proud to had your visit with your team. It was also nice that Mark said some words in Slovene :) I wish your team a lot of wins and you are allways welcome in Slovenia.
They were fortunate to have the chance to know your country.
@@aha3885 lmao to each is own. You don’t gotta put one down to boost another smh
@@aha3885 i agree slovenia is great but... have u ever been to Texas? Not the ghetto like some of the dallas area, but Texas. Its beautiful
@@dabonkus1709 you are so right. My bad. I'll change that words.
@@PhilusMoore808s true, I was very wrong with that comment. My respect for Texas and the texans.
bravo Luka - sending love from Croatia!
Well deserved! Luka you’re much loved!!
@@Justin_Waters Ok
@@Justin_Waters I found the troll
@@Justin_Waters ratio
@@Justin_Waters if he stays in Dallas with that organization maybe. But you can’t blame Lebron for Cleveland being a terribly run organization.
All I can say is I and the rest of the Mavs fans just really don't know how lucky we are to watch Luka play, and I'm just go glad he is on our side!
Yeah, I'm here after the trade. Just unbelievable man...
mark cuban is the best boss i ever seen i read from somewhere he , dirk and kidd and other staffs goes Slovenia brings contract for luka to sign .it shows the sincerity and how he treat his fellow staffs like brothers like own family .i wish mark cuban all the best and stays healthy always.
Same
I hope treats KP the same
@@vc5917 after this they’re all flying to Latvia to visit Porzingis don’t worry, they’ve already come out and said they were.
Same...
@@massiahsan9248 wow really? KP is still a very good player he only had off-season imo
Special moment for all of us Here in Dallas.
Congrats Luka , you deserve the extension and the Dallas Mavericks and Dallas fans are lucky to have to you.
One of the coolest press conferences I can remember watching in quite some time! Proud to be a fan.
You liked Cuban taking shine away from Luka to address different things besides Luka being the man. Feel like he took this opportunity to try to sell others on Dallas being perfect for others to join. It’s the Luka show, dude needs to stay out the way and cut checks
@@erniejohnson677 that’s a bit of a hot take. He said many times how great of a player Luka was. I was speaking from the fact that Dallas gets to sign a player with the level of Luka. It’s cool as a mavs fan.
@@josh7718 and that’s all he shoulda focused on. It’s his day, not your day as an owner for PR clean ups. The man started the interview shouting out all the other ppl, making sure to remind ppl that he had a superstar, “stay loyal”, win a ring. We got great ppl all around, the team is so great now. I don’t like it, it feels like he’s always gonna be in the picture instead of Luka looking like that Don
@@erniejohnson677 I watch almost all of these and have never felt the way you do. Luka seems happy, FO seems happy the team seems happy. If you want my opinion. I wouldn’t read into it too much..we will see in a few months.
Od srca čestitam i želim Vam uspjehe u životu i u karijeri.
Congrats Luka Doncic - You are on track to beat MJ record so far keep it up stay humble and I hope you can be the best player in the world all time!!!!!
Lmfao
No
@@X_Omen_Z i can show you the stats when MJ and Luka are 15 yrs old to 22 yrs old. Luka Beats MJ
@@pizzathehut1674 i can show you the stats when MJ and Luka are 15 yrs old to 22 yrs old. Luka Beats MJ
are you stupid Jordan was legendary, luka literallly can barely dunk and doesn't have enough athletisim and strength to defend well. He's good but all time great he's no where close. Jordan was the best player in the nba in a couple of years after joining
Legendo svaka čast- greetings from Croatia 🇭🇷
Mavs fan from the Philippines!!!!
LUKA MAGIC.GREETING FROM CROATIA🇭🇷
All the best to Luka and Dallas Mavericks!
If he follows the steps that Dirk, Giannis did, the will be a legend and HOF for sure!!!!!
Greetings from Greece!!!!
He alredy is.
In his 3rd seasson 🙁
@@omahafold Has the potential and the skills.... he has to accomplish some "missions" to do so... :-)
@@panayotiscanellopoulos8696 w/o injuries, 🐐
@@omahafold I wish him to be healthy!
@@panayotiscanellopoulos8696 me too ✨
God bless you and God bless Greece 🇬🇷🇸🇮
It’s not a surprise he got a 5 year contract. This dude is a global star and speaks multiple languages. The contract pays for it self.
And all the points he gotta shave
Jason Kidd loves talking about the answers to the test. I have a feeling Kidd made it through high school and college asking that question.
I know right? This is like the 3rd or 4th time I’ve heard him say that in a month…he needs a new catch phrase.
@@slightlyunhinged 🤣
Goran Dragic question: 21:00
Cubes speaking Slovenian reminded me of Blake Griffin's "Ola Mexico."🤣
lmao, he did good tho, give him a month here, the wine would teach him real fast :PP
He was still better than Blake
Cubes made this shit look like such a PR stunt to keep Luka here when his contract is up. Luka Don Alpha Chip or no Chip by the end everybody know the truth and whooped Kawhi’s ass. Straight up. Get a team around him or I would not blame him if he wants rings.
When Cuban said: "Dobry den!", he spoke to me in Russian, Belarusian and Slovenian at the same time. The Slavs are applauding!
@@anatolfrombelarus7940 Not sure but I think that the Cuban have some slavic roots
Yo Mark Cuban has to be one of the best owners in all of sports if not the best. I’m not even a big Mavs fan but yo he even goes to Luka’s country and tries to learn the language is such respect
Lakers fan here and yeah he’s dope. He’s just a fan who came from nothing and made billions and bought an NBA team. That’s a dream.
@@mannersmatter_ I am from Slovenia and we hear/read different things about Cuban. How come no big star (or even mid tier star) wanted to sign for the Mavs? Isn`t Cuban supposed to be a weird owner? Is there any truth to that black player do not like him? I know he had some really weird statements in the past. Regards from Slovenia.
Congratulations, very proud of you luka 💖💖💖
I love the comment about dragić they all want him. I hope he comes to dallas how would be huge for luka development
@@fireball865 Their chemistry will be perfect, remember they won Eurobasket 2017 together with Dragic as the ball handler and Luka was playing off ball and Igor who’s our assistant was their coach. Kidd and Igor will have Luka playing a lot more off ball this season especially if they can land Dragic.
All the best to Luka, mr. Cuban and Mavs!!!!!
GO MAVS, GO LUKA! Let`s now build the culture and team to get the job done. And bring another ring to the city of Dallas and the Mavs fans worldwide! Much love from Munich:)!
According to Cuban y’all already have it. Feel like he’s gonna be the dan Gilbert type if Luka leaves and just blame him for not being good enough
Everyone is still hungover lol
Well to be fair, luka was just out of the fiba tournament
@@jerryxvega you mean the Olympics?
The entire city of Dallas needs to make sure that he wants to stay in Dallas for a long time. Re-name the city to Doncic if that helps
Facts cause if y’all “Lebron in Cleveland” my dawg Luka we gone be pissed. Homeboy don’t need a superteam or other superstars but go get him a Toronto situation where he can just worry about doing him. Win or Lose you always get more credit/blame than deserved-Charles Barkley on Superstars not being the real difference in winning
Doncic City, Texas has a nice ring to it tbh lol
@@erniejohnson677 Luka is good but he will need other superstars to win a championship in nowadays superteamed nba. and lucky for him, Mavs frontoffice will get him superstars. its gonna be fun watching him in upcoming years, will he bring one to dallas
Didn't help Toronto. 😂
@@nerdheid7306 i know hes not a superstar, but they should consider getting dragic for a year or two
He’s championship ready. They could have an amazing dynasty but they need a good core

If anyone is wondering what Mark Cuban said in Slovenian:
"Najprej si želim zahvaliti prebivalcem lepe Slovenije za dobrodošlico Dallasa Mavericks"
which translates to:
"First I would like to thank the people of beautiful Slovenia for welcoming Dallas Maverics"
Mavs fan from India! Great to see Luka sorted long term. Get him Dragic and Lauri now!
so glad to be a dallas fan and born in dallas.lets get luka and the rest of the hard working team a trophy.
You know very well Mark Cuban is giving Luka plenty of gifts under the table. No hate many owners/GMs do this with great players.
keep this man here at all costs….. pls!!
Dallas should go after Sikam him and Luka would be a great fit and he can play defense. But congrats on the contract Luka…we knew it would come. But let’s get a real trade deal for this guy!
That would be tufff 💪🏽
Boa some of u guys nba moves makes sense rs as a Lakers fan I would have never thought Spicy P fkd up nickname but yeah
I like that move
lol i have never seen a "contract extension press conference" in my life, this is very new to me. HEY LUKA U DESERVED IT!
lol yeah me too
Poor Luka he must be jet lagged after the Olympics. Congrats to Dallas!
They are in slovenia I believe
@@Dab3stxblasassassin lol a real Mavs fan will know where he’s at
@@HarisKhan-wo8hz y’all better keep track of him. He gonna be the hottest free agent out and is unfortunately gonna get criticized if he doesn’t win. No superteam, Chip or no chip Luka the Man, top Alpha, and the Don
They are in Slovenia.. everyone else is jet lagged
Heart
Hallelujah 4 Luka! LET'S GO MAVS!!!
Happy for Luka
Luka secured ! Now please go get him some Help in the Team pls
Let's go Mavs #MFFL so happy we got it can't wait to go to a Mavs game this season or next I just want to see Luka
Congrats Luka, congrats The Dallas Mavs Organisation! Navijamo za vas!
As Ian Mahimni would say, "LET'S GOOOOOO!!!"
I'm super excited to have this man on the Mavs.
Love very much that LUkA signed wd Dallas a very long contract❤️❤️❤️loveuLUKA😘
Mark Cuban is such a great person-
Luka as well 🍀🍀🌷🌷
turning 77 into LL , well done designers ... Also , once again . I doubt there is organization in NBA that would take care of luka like Dallas will ... I'm happy just like i was on draft night . I hope Dallas delegation enjoyed the stay in our little Jewl ... And to the rest of Dallas , if you ever travel to Slovenia , make sure , you tell everyone you are from Dallas , Basicly you guys are Family from over the sea now :)
Edit: What did Mark take a pic of ? 25:29 :) did he tweet it out ? :D I wnna see :) He looked kind of confused and amused at the same time :)
I mean the fact mark was able to find a successor legit right after dirk, is juse insane
I would love for him to end his career in Dallas. You can see how much Mark Cuban appreciates him, and seems ready to do what it takes to win another championship soon.
Mavs are going to be great, hopefully they get porzingus more plays, they have great chance to win championship.
Trade Porzingus for a bag of chips
I want Mavs to keep KP and help him reach his potential. He can be a lot of fun to watch, similarly to Dirk.
@@gniblack yeah I enjoy kp just need to keep him a little closer to basket, we know he can shoot threes but he won't get no rebounds or oops behind 3 point line, once and while but don't think it's good, to have him just standing behind three point line waiting for a pass, he needs to go down low and demand ball and exicute.
It seems the rings aren't Cubans priority, it was the same with Dirk and now its happening with Luka...
Just went from 6 to 12 o’clock real quick 🤌🏻
Ottimo, ora andiamo a prenderci un anello Luka 💪
Mark is fucking funny and this organization is amazing Luka is definitely a generational player and has every opportunity to bring multiple championships to Dallas super honored to be a fan and I can’t wait to see what they do for the next few years.
Yeah Montrell!!!
čestitam
Man he really did it to Scooter at the end
Remember when no one believed this kid was going to be as successful as he is in the NBA because he didn't look athletic? 200+mill later here we are. Mind over matter
another example of people preferring their own opinions over facts, which they don't even check.
I think Nowitzki thinking " Cuban, I need a check" to go with that round of applause yesterday Billionaire.
Luka is in good hands 🤙🙏
Mi slovenci🇸🇮🇸🇮
Cuban surround luka legend with talented team mates
5 years baby. Let’s get this ring 💍🔥
Wow, Luka's spanish is perfect. He even has the Spain accent.
he played for Barcelona..back then
@@michaellocke48 si,si, inLa Corunha 😉
@advancedapathy lol ... says nothing ... always depends what kind of guy you are
@advancedapathy bullshit ... why then all the Mexicans aren't speaking english when living in US for 10+ years ? people live in own communities, it always depends and has ZERO to do if you're a moroon or not
Luka will play in the new Bernabéu, with 81.000 crazy Luka lovers. Real Madrid basketball team will use the football stadium for the big games, and the inauguration of the arena will be a Real Madrid vs Dallas Mavericks. And someday, Luka will play an official NBA game in this arena. Like happened in London or Paris. That's the idea of Florentino Pérez, and the only reason is our golden boy, Luka Doncic. A truly cat, like we say in Madrid.
(The madrilenians with madrilenian ancestors are calling "gatos", cats. Since 1085 ac, when a young soldier climbed the muslim defenses to liberate Madrid.)
Need more content from this channel. Think of the Mavs fans all over the world and there are
Trivia: Quique Villalobos, on the far right of the table, is Luka's representative. He also played in Real Madrid particularly at the time when George Karl coached the team.
Dirk!🎉
Mark Cuban: You say the vine,vine,vine
We say : Goran Dragic to Dallas Buy,buy,buy.
Congratulations
CONGRATULATIONS.. LUkA😘
WELL DONE LUKA!!! GREETINGS FROM LT
I love where the NBA seems to be heading!
I was here 2021!!
I took a train from dc to Slovenia last summer around Christmas
Congratulations Luka on well deserved Super maxed #MFFL
Still underpaid. We’re so lucky to have Luka. 😍 Now sign some more help!
They couldn't pay him more. Salary cap is 112m and max they can pay him is 30% and 8% more each subsequent year. And obviously after this contract is done, he will be offered another supermax where the salary cap is higher and they can pay him 35% and 8% more each subsequent year est.300-350m.
@@xrandomdonalds695 lol I’m aware, I’m saying if we could pay him more I would
@@untmeech tbh, no need tho , i can see him in future taking less than this Just so dallas can sign someone else, just like Dirk did , kid is not just skills and show , he loves the game and has a big heart :) he is set for life with this one contract :D
zion is better just wait
@@hammeraffe 🤣🤣🤣 not sure if you are trolling or just plain stupid. 🙈
LUKA MAGIC ❗❗❗❗❗🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾🤘🏾
Am a LOYAL fan of Dallas Team since I knew what NBa's all about hehe.. the more that LUKa signed in Dallas
I am Slovenian and I MUST point this out - Luka is from Slovenia, he is not Spanish or American. I am only saying this because I myself am Slovenian but Luka is also Slovenian so I am very cool :)
Luka magic
Mark has a man crush on Luka. He’d pay absolutely everything to keep him there forever lol
Cuban!!..please do ur part and put the right pieces around Luka! Don't waste these years and his youth! He's still gonna get better and only 22! If y'all want a chip, get the right guys!!
I'm glad Mark called Luka a great human being
To Luka👏🏻🇸🇮🍻
Can’t wait to see if Luke can really deliver this season.. Because he has to deliver in terms of Dallas Mavericks regular season record and playoff series…
Magic Luka🔝💪💪🔝
Definitely one cool kid in the NBA, Loaded with amazing skills and a game winner Luka always smiles in the game no matter win or lose, Even if the opponent is Patrick Beverley 😊
All the Best Luka , Giannis got one , hope this year you get one and keep Lebron at bay 😂
LUKA is one of kind talent, I’m sure he will get his. But still… LEGOAT will scoop up a bunch of rings before that. Luka gotta be happy and hug his bag of $200m for now and perhaps take a nap, it will be his turn soon after, just be patient and enjoy the moment :)
happiest day of Mark Cuban's life
Luka needs a Tobby or Petelia I don't know that name in Dallas.
Mark Cuban is not lazy. He went to another country to get a deal done and took his staff with him.
Nothing unusual, they always waited in-front of Lebron`s house to extend his contract.
CAME BACK AFTER GAME 7... "EVERYBODY ACT TOUGH WHEN THEY UP"
Os esperamos en Madrid! ;)
💪 Hard Work Go 🤠Mavs...
Be Humble! Go A Long Way
{God 🙏Bless You}
Yep, Mark allowed it to happen(basically saying he finally allowed the GM to do his Job) And don't forget the only reason he finally did, was because Donnie came to him the same way and bet his job that this player would be the next great one(he did this with Gianiss and Cuban got all sharktank on him, Donnie made sure he understood this is the same situation . Which of course could only remind Shark Tank what a Dumbass business decision he made before.
When your GM is begging you to draft a guy because he knows he's going to be a great player and he bets his job on it. You don't get all shark tank stupid on him. Thank God even Cubes understood he wouldn't want to repeat that decision a second time.(Course that GM is fired now because the owner didn't like him leaking out that he has tied his hands all these years, Ironic that)
Mark Cuban was happier than when he got married
Whait Is mark in Slovenia 🇸🇮 right now????
yea they all flew out to slovenia
Only man that’s worthy 200+mil in the nba
No !!!
Please add the captions all the time. I am a Deaf person and I am the huge fan of Dallas Mavericks especially Luka Doncic! I don’t understand what people in this video are talking. Please don’t forget us the Deaf people in Dallas Community. Thanks, Matt
Congrats
