Dallas Mavericks star Luka Doncic is set to do even bigger things, according to Los Angeles Clippers forward Paul George.
“Luka [Doncic] is not next up, Luka is now… You knew Luka was going to be that guy, and he’s that guy now… He’s got a chance to be one of the best to ever do it.”

George claimed in his Podcast P show that Doncic could be the greatest international player if he continues his spectacular play.
The former Indiana Pacer said the 24-year-old is not an up-and-coming player but already a bonafide superstar in the league.
"He's that guy now. With his size, his scoring ability, his playmaking, his I.Q., his vision... now we're talking about being the biggest international player now. He's got a chance to be one of the best to ever do it," George explained.
George listed several international players Doncic could surpass in the all-time rankings, including former Mavericks teammate Dirk Nowitzki, Tony Parker, Hakeem Olajuwon, and Giannis Antetokounmpo.

Luka Doncic is incredible despite young age
The Slovenian is now headed for his sixth NBA campaign this year, and he already has a formidable resume to show.
Doncic has made the All-Star team and All-NBA First Team yearly since his sophomore campaign, which is a sensational feat for any NBA player.
Before entering the NBA, the 6-foot-7 guard dominated the EuroLeague, claiming MVP and Final Four MVP honors and the EuroLeague title for Real Madrid Baloncesto in 2018.
However, the Mavericks missed the playoffs in 2022-23 despite having Doncic and acquiring star Kyrie Irving in a midseason trade.
They are now looking to bounce back this season with the addition of Grant Williams, Seth Curry, and several others.
