Marcus Morris: People say it all the time: ‘skinny Luka,’ or ‘in-shape Luka,’ but he scores with weight, without weight — no matter what. He went to the championship last year looking the exact same. It’s more about perception, media narratives, and what the Lakers want to hype up because they’re a big market. But honestly, Luka’s not going to lose weight during the season. That’s when it matters. In the summer, you’ve got your chef, your regimen, no stress, you’re at home, and the weight comes off fast. The real issue is hitting cities at 3 AM, being hungry after games, and trying to keep the weight off. That’s the real challenge for Luka — not the offseason.” -via YouTube / June 15, 2025
