Luka Doncic continues on his weight loss journey.
The Los Angeles Lakers superstar Doncic entered training camp this year at an official listing of 242 pounds, Jovan Buha of The Athletic reported this week. That marks a modest decrease from last season’s training camp where Doncic officially clocked in at 244 pounds.
Doncic, 27, is about to enter his ninth NBA season. Ever since summer 2025, Doncic has been making a concerted effort to get into better shape and was even looking ripped on the cover of Men’s Health magazine last year.
Earlier this offseason, we heard another positive report about Doncic’s conditioning. Apparently, Doncic is now about as lean as he was in the early portion of his NBA career.
The six-time All-Star Doncic led the league last season with 33.5 points per game, marking his second career NBA scoring title. But Doncic still appeared in just 64 regular season games and then missed the entire postseason due to a serious hamstring strain suffered in early April.
Now Doncic is the undisputed alpha dog in Los Angeles with LeBron James leaving the Lakers over the summer to sign with the Philadelphia 76ers. For now, it looks like Doncic is physically up to the task, and he has even been stepping up for the franchise in some other notable ways as well.
