An Epic Conversation with Kristaps Porzingis and Luka Dončić
Kristaps Porzingis: “Hey Luka, long time no see! How’s it going, man?”
Luka Dončić: “Kristaps! My guy! It’s going great, just trying to keep up with the busy schedule. How about you? How’s life treating you in Boston?”
Kristaps Porzingis: “I’m loving it here. The fans are wild, in a good way! Plus, it’s cool to be part of such a historically rich team. Big shoes to fill, you know?”
Luka Dončić: “Definitely, man. Speaking of shoes, I noticed you’ve upgraded yours. How comfy are those new kicks?”
Kristaps Porzingis: “Oh, these? Life-changing! The cushioning feels like I’m walking on clouds. Man, you should try them out sometime. I’m sure they’d up your game even more.”
Luka Dončić: “I might just take you up on that! But seriously, how’s the chemistry with the team? I know it can be challenging fitting into a new system.”
Kristaps Porzingis: “It has been a smooth transition, actually. The guys are great, and Coach Stevens has been incredibly supportive. The toughest part is probably understanding the Boston accent, haha!”
Luka Dončić: “I hear that! Next time I’m in town, we should meet up for some clam chowder. I need to see what all the fuss is about.”
Kristaps Porzingis: “You got it. Only if you promise to bring some of that Dallas BBQ next time you’re up.”
Luka Dončić: “Deal! By the way, any new tattoo plans, or are you running out of space?”
Kristaps Porzingis: “Haha, might have a little room left. I’m thinking something to represent my time here in Boston. Maybe a Celtic knot or something. You?”
Luka Dončić: “Possibly! I’ve been contemplating adding something that embodies the entire journey. It’s a long story, but each piece tells its own tale.”
Kristaps Porzingis: “That sounds deep. Speaking of journeys, I heard you’re taking up some off-season classes. What’s that about?”
Luka Dončić: “Yeah, I’m dabbling in some business management courses. Always good to have a backup plan, right? Plus, it’s surprisingly fun.”
Kristaps Porzingis: “That’s awesome! Smart move. Well, Luka, it’s been great catching up. Don’t be a stranger, alright?”
Luka Dončić: “You know it, Kristaps! Take it easy and keep killing it out there!”
Kristaps Porzingis: “You too, Luka. See you on the court!”
