So if anybody can eventually catch King James...
"If you're saying me, there's no way," Doncic said before the question was even asked, "because I'm not playing that much."
"I don't know about 20 years," Doncic said after a 32-point, nine-rebound, nine-assist performance in a home win over James' Lakers that afternoon. "That's a long time to play basketball. I'd rather go back to my farm in Slovenia."
Interesting that he would say that considering he was the player I could see breaking the scoring record once LeBron is retired.

No.
To break LeBron's longevity of excellence, meaning at least 18-19 all-nba teams, or break the scoring record, you need all of the below:
1) You have to be an elite level scorer.
2) You have to be elite by year 2, max year 3 of your NBA career.
3) You have to dedicate your life year round to maintaining your body.
4) You have to be "genetically" extremely durable.
Luka is missing 3 and 4.

I think everyone will agree Luka had a pretty impressive showing in last year's playoff run. He would have to replicate that 14+ more times to catch Lebron's playoff scoring record and there are top 10 all time players who didn't even play 14 total seasons.

Better pick another new hero cause LeLuka's tight with the King. That's why he copied his game.

Luka simply knows that in the grand scheme of things, longevity stats really don't mean a whole lot.

he has better things to do then desperately chase longevity stats.
He has to win a ring before he reaches 30.

Guessing Luka will play through age 34 or 35. Instead of 36-38.
