LeBron James, the LA Lakers star has been more active on social media after the Lakers' failed to make the playoffs this season.

Recently, LeBron posted a "ask me anything" session for his fans, where one of the fans asked who was his favorite player under the age of 25. James named Dallas Mavericks star Luka Doncic and said he is his favorite. 

In a recent talk show, Fat Joe asked LeBron why he said Luka Doncic is his favorite player, where LeBron gave several justifications in his reply.

James said, " I mean he's gigantic. He's 6'8" point guard. He is 225 pounds. He has the ball on strong. And, more importantly, his vision. That's why I love- his vision."

He further added about Luka saying, "He can control a game. He doesn't even have to shoot. He will literally- he'll walk the ball up the court 10 straight times and get to his spot every single time. Just because of his pace." 

Later in the interview, James explained how Luka finds his shot and gets to his spot on the court. He said: " He knows when he comes off a pick and roll if they're hard showing, or if they hedging, or if they dropping the pick and roll......"

Luka Doncic has been in the limelight since his great performance in the match against LA Lakers, where he scored 28.3 points, 9.1 rebounds, and 8.7 assists. 

Luka, at the age of 23 is surprising fans with his remarkable performances. However, his earlier achievements include 1 All-Rookie Team, 1 NBA Rookie of the Year, and 3 All-NBA.
