I see it as "waste" because I think at 23 Luka could already be much further than he is. He has "GOAT" level talent, i.e. he has a natural talent level that could lead him to surpass MJ when all is said and done. But he HAS to put in the work to get there. I personally see it as a "waste of talent" if he doesn't.
Hard disagree on semantics. Luka IS great so he's not wasting his talent. He could be so much more so it's much more appropriate to say he's not maximizing his talent. "Wasting" is also much more appropriate label for someone when their career rather than when they are still on their first contract.
