While all of us in the United State argue on social media about who is the best player in the 2018 NBA Draft, Luka Doncic is winning championships in Europe.

Tuesday night, Real Madrid won the Liga ACB Championship, the highest basketball league in Spain, thanks to the leadership and production from Euroleague MVP Doncic. They defeated Baskonia 96-85 in game four.

Talk about a resume, Doncic now brings the titles ACB Champion, Euroleague Champion, Euroleague MVP, and Euroleague Final Four MVP with him to New York for the NBA Draft on Thursday.

Doncic is expected to be on the board when the Sacramento Kings pick 2nd. Will Sacramento take the 19-year-old European sensation?
