Dillon Brooks Names Luka Doncic as Top Foul Baiter in the NBA

As the NBA season approaches, Dillon Brooks of the Phoenix Suns has been vocal about his views on Luka Doncic and the Los Angeles Lakers. In a recent video for the NBA’s 2K League, Brooks was asked to name his top foul baiters in the league.

Brooks initially listed Shai Gilgeous-Alexander from the Oklahoma City Thunder but quickly placed Doncic at the top of his list, only to later remark that Doncic is actually the worst at foul baiting. Despite this, Doncic has proven to be effective in drawing fouls, although statistical comparisons between the two show Doncic has a significant advantage in their head-to-head matchups.

Brooks also mentioned Trae Young and ultimately decided that Joel Embiid should be included in his top three. Meanwhile, Lakers legend Michael Cooper has drawn parallels between Doncic and Larry Bird, highlighting their similar playing styles and abilities.
