Michael Jordan stepped foot into the world of NASCAR almost three years ago, and now Luka Doncic is set to follow in his footsteps. Despite the generational gap, their shared interest in different sports is a common trait. Luka Doncic had a disappointing FIBA World Cup, finishing in seventh place with his national team, Slovenia.
Luka is currently focusing on the upcoming NBA season, while fans eagerly anticipate seeing him in action alongside his star teammate, who is currently on an Asia tour. However, before the season begins, Doncic will make a special appearance in NASCAR.
Luka Doncic’s Jordan Luka 2-inspired wrap to feature at Texas Motor Speedway
The Texas Motor Speedway will showcase Luka Doncic’s colors on the race track. The number forty-five car, a souped-up Camry model, will sport lime green Luka Doncic logos representing the upcoming Jordan Luka 2 ‘Trick Shot’ colorway, inspired by the Mavs star.
Both the upcoming shoes and the car will feature colors from a neon palette, complemented by a crisp white hue all around. The color tones complement each other, resembling the neon Northern lights against a plain white tundra backdrop. Additionally, the icy blue outsoles complete the overall look, giving the shoe a refreshing appearance. The Luka 2 is set to be released in adult sizing on October 24th.
Doncic’s Jordan contract renewal
Luka Doncic has extended his partnership with the Jordan brand till 2029. The Dallas Mavericks’ star player first joined Jordan’s roster in 2019 and has been with them ever since. A recent report revealed that Doncic extended his partnership and will be staying with the brand till 2029 and releasing more sneakers exclusive to his lineup.
So far, Luka Doncic has introduced two sneaker models with the Jordan brand: Luka 1 and Luka 2. Both models received significant praise from both casual fans and athletes alike. The upcoming addition, the ‘Trick Shot,’ will also join the Luka 2 lineup.
