I vaguely remember the Stokes story. I enjoyed this quick bio and became a fan. Much respect.

from SI's pre-draft assessment of Luka...

[b]Weaknesses[/b]
• Athletic ability has come into question. Quick enough off the floor and can elevate for dunks, but relies on his size and change of speeds to get into the paint and finish. Will face an adjustment to the speed of the NBA game. More like the NBA will have to adjust to his consistency.

• Not an elite creator for himself off the dribble. Relies on using his body to shield the ball and change direction. Quicker defenders can get into him and make him uncomfortable. Can be forced into settling for his jumper in isolation situations. IMO, he does a pretty fair job of creating off the dribble. Nobody really seems to bother him any more. Settling for a mid-range jumper is not such a bad option these days.

• Shooting just 30% from three-point range this season. Ball looks good coming out of his hand – higher degree of difficulty shots may factor in. Stands to benefit from more open, set looks when placed alongside other playmakers. Definitely improved in this area.

• Big and strong enough to stay on the floor defensively, but may have difficulty defending elite athletes on the wing. He's proved to be an engaged, non-negative, defender regardless of who he matches up with.
