Don't have a subscription, but the premise here verges on absurdity. In contrast to guys like Dirk and Giannis, Luka was already internationally famous well before the draft. The Mavs didn't "discover" him any more than the Pelicans "discovered" Zion.

Yeah, that is the limit of not being able to read the article. It is more about how Dallas came to rank Luka #1 on their board, hid it from the league, and spent the first year developing him.

I'm just so used to people trying to make Luka fit the Euro mystery man stereotype that I've come to expect it every time an article like this comes up.
