The tournament helped unveil Doncic’s “Luka 2 Lake Bled” Jordan sneakers, which were featured during the tournament.

The shoes are a low sneaker with two different shades of blue and orange accents on the tongue and laces.

Although Doncic himself did not appear at the tournament, the players seemed to enjoy their experience at the event in northwestern Slovenia.

The matches were held in a three-on-three format, and at one point there was even a dunk contest.

Doncic signed with Jordan in 2019 and later became the first European player ever to own a signature sneaker from the brand.

In August he signed a new deal with the company.

The All-NBA guard led Slovenia at the FIBA ​​World Cup this summer as the team advanced to the quarterfinals.

Doncic was ejected in that game against Canada after picking up two technical fouls, but finished the game with 26 points.

The 24-year-old will look to get the Mavs back into the postseason next season after the team finished just 38-44 last year.

Doncic was brilliant individually, averaging 32.4 points, 8.6 rebounds and 8.0 assists per game.

But the team’s form declined towards the end of the season and Dallas finished eleventh in the Western Conference, not even qualifying for the play-in tournament.
