Here are the NBA’s top 5 players with the most views on social media platforms::
Luka Doncic - 210 million views
Luka Doncic gave Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors everything they could handle in the Western Conference finals before bowing out. “Luka Legend” played like he belonged on that stage as he was spectacular for the Dallas Mavericks.
The edge on both ends of the floor was obviously on the side of the Warriors, particularly with the emerging defensive abilities of Andrew Wiggins. Golden State eliminated Dallas in six games but not before the NBA confirmed Doncic’s incredible appeal to basketball fans.
Left is Michael Jordan. Right is Luka Doncic. Both in their 5th season.
32.5 PPG 32.3 PPG
8.0 RPG 8.7 RPG
8.0 APG 8.3 APG https://t.co/neBFovnDQ1
Doncic is putting up MVP numbers this season, a big reason why he’s garnered 200+ million views in roughly three months.
Giannis Antetokounmpo - 215 million
Giannis Antetokounmpo, without Khris Middleton in the lineup, dragged the Boston Celtics to a Game 7 in the Eastern Conference semifinals. “The Greek Freak” showed why he is a two-time MVP and gave the Celtics headaches on both ends of the floor.
Antetokounmpo’s spectacular series against the NBA’s best defense only solidified his status as a must-see superstar. The two-time MVP has been dominating the league for a couple of years and has been judged by ESPN in a preseason poll as the best player in the league.
