Team Note: Doncic has not dunked in the Lakers yet, and his physical fitness has improved in the offseason and has been dunked in the national team

August 22nd News Lakers' reporter Anthony Irwin wrote an article revealing some of the inside stories of Doncic's weight loss.

Anthony Irwin wrote: "Although Doncic did not have a 40-inch (1-meter) vertical bounce when he entered the league, he did have done dunks. However, as a Lakers player, he has not shown this skill in the game. Although the number of dunks does not fully reflect the player's explosiveness, it at least means something. According to the Slovenian national team, Doncic's physical fitness has improved significantly, completing some dunks that his teammates have not seen in years. Another key development is Doncic's performance without the ball. Sources revealed that he focused on improving the comfort of receiving and shooting and stayed in touch with his coach (Lakeman assistant coach Saint Jean was with him during the European Basketball Championship) to understand how to influence the game when LeBron or Reeves holds the ball."

According to statistics, Doncic has 25 dunks in the rookie year but has never exceeded 15 times a season since.
