Luka Doncic will fly to New York, USA, Wednesday (20/6) in order to attend the NBA Draft ceremony that will be held at Barclays Center, Brooklyn, Thursday (21/6).
The 19-year-old Slovenian player and potential No. 1 pick in the Draft will board the first plane he can take from Madrid once Real returns from Vitoria, where he and his teammates won the ACB title by beating Baskonia in Game 4 of the Finals.
Real is expected to arrive in Madrid at early Wednesday morning, around 2:30 – 3:00 CET.
Doncic finished what was quite possibly his last game in Europe with eight points, eight rebounds, two assists and two steals in 28 minutes. He also drained one crucial and quite ridiculous 3-pointer down the stretch.
Following the match, Doncic broke into tears at the podium.
ESPN first reported the news about Doncic attending the Draft.
