Luka Doncic got votes in balloting for most overrated NBA player
Some people continue to think that Lakers superstar Luka Doncic is overrated.
Luka Doncic has been one of the best basketball players in the world for the last several years. He just completed a fantastic regular season in which he led the NBA in scoring average and registered 33. 5 points, 7.
7 rebounds, 8. 3 assists and 1. 6 steals a game.
However, he has received plenty of criticism, especially over the last year or two, for his alleged shortcomings. A fair number of people have accused him of being a weak defender, and some even feel that his numbers are, to an extent, empty calories and that he doesn't make the type of impact a true franchise player should. The Athletic polled 161 players and asked them to name the most overrated players.
Houston Rockets center Alperen Sengun got the most votes, but Doncic was also on the list, as he received 3. 7% of the votes and came in tied for fifth-most votes. At this point in his career, since he hasn't won a championship yet and has gotten to the NBA Finals just once in seven previous seasons, one cannot definitively say that Doncic cannot lead a team to the promised land.
