Dallas Mavericks’ star Luka Doncic revealed in a recent interview that his fiancée, Anamaria Goltes, isn’t a fan of basketball. Doncic, who often faces intense pressure as an NBA player, spoke about how Anamaria’s support has been crucial in helping him cope with the challenges of being a star athlete.
“It’s a lot of pressure outside. When I get home, it’s no basketball talk. She don’t like basketball. But she goes to every game. I mean, she likes it now but she didn’t like it, which is good for me. I really like that.”

Doncic expressed his appreciation for the fact that Anamaria’s interests extend beyond basketball, allowing him to have a balanced and supportive personal life. The couple recently welcomed their daughter, Gabriela, on December 1, 2023, and Doncic has been delivering standout performances on the court since becoming a father.
Luka Doncic shared that they met in Croatia at the age of 11 and, looking back on their journey, emphasized the significant role Anamaria plays in his life. Despite not having an affinity for basketball, Anamaria attends every game to support her husband. Doncic highlighted the importance of having a ‘no basketball talk’ rule at home, providing a sanctuary where he can disconnect from the pressures of the game.
While Doncic continues to shine in the NBA, his ability to compartmentalize and maintain a healthy work-life balance with Anamaria’s support adds another dimension to the basketball star’s life beyond the court.
