Los Angeles Lakers point guard Luka Doncic apparently took all the mocking and criticism about his weight personally. How much the 26-year-old Slovenian weighed when he was traded from the Dallas Mavericks to the Lakers back in early February was a hotly debated issue on nearly every sports talk show.
