The position he guards will come down to his official measurements. This year, Real Madrid had him listed roughly at 6'5 w/o shoes. Euroleague has him at 6'6 w/o shoes. Guessing with a 220lb frame. If he can grow to at least 6'7 w/o shoes and adds more bulk, I think he'll be able to guard SF even without a positive wingspan.
I think Doncic is a point guard in the NBA. He should be the #1 primary ball handler.. this is why I don't like the fit with Fox at all. Doncic doesn't need the ball to be effective, but if you're taking the ball out of his hands, you're making him stand at the corner to wait for 3s. That's not a player who's worth the #1 pick. Doncic is worth the #1 pick because he's a 6'7 wing with ball handling, playmaking, facilitating, and elite vision.
Let's see how Fox does in his first year. If he shows franchise player potential, then I think we'll pass up on Doncic. The fit is just too awkward lol

Donic is like Lonzo Ball on steroids taller, bigger, more athletic as well. He has a better shot and more transferable and I think Ball is way overrated in half court. Where Donic will thrive he's already elite in pick and roll at 6'8 that's huge. Donic will be a star
