Beasley: I don’t like the saying that Luca’s figure is distorted. Doesn’t it require physical fitness to take 30 shots in one game?

Recently, former NBA player Michael Beasley participated in the podcast program of Moshe Popack and talked about Doncic.

He said: "I hate the narrative surrounding Doncic - the recent news is full of 'Luca's distorted figure'. Why don't those who say he is fat when he scores 50 or 60 points? You know, at least physical fitness is required to shoot 30 times in the NBA in a single game, right? When he performs well, no one talks about his figure; once he doesn't perform well, he starts to pick on the trick. Last year he led the team to the Western Conference Finals, and after winning, someone took the drinks from him. . Is it a milkshake or a beer? "

" Now, he is fat because he doesn't play well? This is unfair to players. The NBA makes billions and players have to support 20-30 people. If your annual salary is 6-7 million, you may only have 1 million after tax. Just because you don't make a shot or won a game, you are labeled as "distorted in figure". This is unfair. After all, there are only more than 400 players in the league."
