I mean are you looking at Luka? He has plenty of reasons. Now he's responsible for them, but I'm just saying. At this point, conditioning looks like it will be a problem he will struggle with for the rest of his career (and he probably will not end up having the longevity people think he will given his play style). I do at least partially think that genetically, he's just not built to be a basketball player, particularly one who plays the way he does as a primary POA ball handler (as opposed to say Jokic). But obviously he needs to be doing everything possible to maximise the physique he has and he obviously isn't doing that at this point in his career.
