Did Luka Doncic And Team Slovenia Have An Alcohol Loaded Party Until 5am Before Quarter Final Loss?
During the EuroBasket, that ended this past Sunday, Dallas Mavericks superstar Luka Doncic was showing once again, that he is one of the best basketball players in the world.
Luka lead the way for the Slovenian national team in the group stage with averages of 26.6 points, 7.6 rebounds and 6.8 assists per game on 53.8% shooting from the field, and secured the top seed in the ‘group of death’ with Germany, France and Lithuania.
But that’s where the good news end. After beating Belgium in the round of 16, Slovenia’s goal of a repeat, was destroyed by Poland in the quarter Finals.
According to Croatian news outlet Index.hr, who report via basketball portal Bhbasket.ba, the reason for the surprising loss to Poland (who were then destroyed with 95.54 by France in the Semis), this was caused by a party with lots and lots of alcohol the Slovenians had before the night of the Poland game.
“From our sources in Berlin, we learn that the national team of Slovenia had a party to remember the night before Poland. The party ended at five in the morning.”
The outlet connected Luka Doncic’s post-game apologies of letting down his country with the alleged drunkenness.
Doncic already made headlines before their match with Germany when he was seen smoking before the game.
Doncic is known for a more relaxed lifestyle, but drinking with his teammates until dawn the night before the Eurobasket quarterfinal match would be truly unprofessional, so far however, the story hasn’t been confirmed by any other source.
