Luka Doncic has named Michael Jordan as the historical legend he would most want to face in a game.

Speaking in an interview with SLAM, as reported by BasketNews, the 27-year-old Los Angeles Lakers guard was asked by a young Spanish fan to choose a dream matchup from basketball history.

"I think I would choose Michael Jordan," Doncic said. "It's an easy answer, but he was an incredible player, and I would really like to play against him."

Doncic already has first-hand experience alongside one pillar of the greatest-of-all-time conversation, having played with 41-year-old LeBron James on the Lakers last season. His selection of Jordan instantly fuels the classic debate over how a clash between prime Jordan and Doncic's distinct scoring and playmaking skillset would unfold.
