I'm not saying it can't happen, but Luka's style of play doesn't fit everybody. Him and Kyrie seem to be making it work, but adding a 3rd wheel may be tricky. Until Luka is more willing to play off the ball ( he still doesn't) I have a hard time believing another bonafide star will sacrifice coming there.
I actually don't care much about this, it doesn't "seem" to work between Luka and Kyrie, it works without qualification because Kyrie is not particularly ball dominant. He's not really been much more ball dominant than Steph Curry for a long while.
We don't need other ball dominant stars to play next to Luka, and those are the ones that would have issues playing here. Luka's style fits anyone who doesn't require the ball in their hands consistently to be effective, and that's fine, because there's not another player this team could acquire that would make the team better having an even split share of ball handling duties with Luka. If a third wheel type is gonna have an issue playing here it's because they are too reliant on ball dominance for their effectiveness, and we don't need that player anyway
