With the 4th pick in the 2018 NBA Draft, the Dallas Mavericks selected Luka Doncic. This is a longshot of a pick as rookies don't tend to make the All-Star team, but if any rookie is going to it could be Luka Doncic.

Doncic has come into the league with an advantage over the other American rookies in that he has been playing professional basketball in the Euroleague for the last three years, and was coming off a Euroleague MVP season.

Doncic has come into the league ready to play. Averaging 19.1 PPG, 6.5 RPG & 4.2 APG, the thing that makes Doncic so special is his court vision. The way he unlocks the opposition's defense helps him break open for a drive, or a sneaky good pass to a team mate.

At only 19 years old, even though he may not make the All-Star team (especially in a loaded Western Conference), he will definitely make it in years to come.
