Chapter 406: Winning Starts Here.
Luka Dončić lay on the floor for a moment before his teammates finally helped him up. He got to his feet, his expression a mix of frustration and determination.
But as soon as the ball was inbounded, he was back in motion, moving off the ball, looking for an opening.
He wasn't just some hyped-up European prospect. He wasn't wired like most young stars.
Luka wanted to win—badly.
But ambition alone wasn't enough.
Not when you weren't strong enough yet.
For the next stretch of the game, Han exposed Dončić—on both ends of the floor.
It wasn't just a rookie moment. It was a lesson.
Some fans in the crowd winced, barely able to watch.
Of all the players Dončić could have poked—why did it have to be Han Sen?
Yet despite Dončić's struggles, Cleveland stayed in the game.
