Former NBA player Boban Mayangovic recently accepted an interview with Yahoo and talked about multiple topics. Among them, he talked about the new season MVP and said it would be a battle between Doncic and Jokic.

"This will be a competition between Doncic and Jokic, and one of them will become the MVP," Boban said.

Doncic is actively exercising this summer, and there are reports that he has lost about 28 kilograms. Speaking of this, Boban said: "Luca is the best player. He trains hard, he loves training. He has been in the training hall. He has been competing. He is doing the best things for himself, and he is really the best. All the movements he is doing now, he has polished. He is talented and able to do whatever moves he wants."

"He is one of the best players in the world, and I say that not just because he is my friend. He is really one of the best. I know how much hard he has put in, and we know each other this summer and over the years."

When talking about whether being traded this year to the Lakers has had an impact on his hard practice this summer, Boban said: "Maybe no, maybe there is, we don't know what happened. I understand his spiritual strength and how he works, and every summer he plays for the national team, even if a long NBA season has exhausted him. He is working hard to achieve his goals in the national team and in the Lakers."
