I am sure he doesn't have any problem sharing the ball with someone who actually knows what to do with it other than sling it to the hoop.
Yeah, that's the question: Has Luka been ball dominate here simply because it's the only good option?
I trust your opinion on it, but I also want to point out that he's playing point guard in pretty much all of the Euro footage that has been shared with me. I'd say one difference is that he seems to have been on the bench for longer over there. Maybe they just have fewer but deeper good teams, and bench players play longer? IDK, but most of the time I've seen him in the game, I feel like he has been playing PG.
Please understand, I'm not questioning his ability to play off-ball. I'm saying maybe he doesn't really want to, although the explanation you're giving is possible, too. I just don't think we've seen enough here, with the Mavericks, to make it clear.
