Luka Doncic is not active in recruiting players to his team, ESPN reports. “They seek his input, but he’s not heavily involved in personnel decisions,” ESPN’s reporter Tim MacMahon told. “He has not shown interest in being heavily involved. He spends much of his offseason in Europe. He’s not a guy who has shown the desire to be a recruiter.”

Goran Dragić said in his native Slovenia this week that he chose to sign with Chicago rather than Dallas (and the chance to team up with countryman Luka Dončić) because the Bulls offered the 36-year-old a more significant role. -via marcstein.substack.com / July 15, 2022
