Luka Doncic and Anamaria Knew Each Other since They Were 12

Goltes, who is also Slovenian, met Doncic at the young age of 12 at Croatia's seaside. They had mutual friends back then who are still the same group of people they hold dear.

They began their romantic relationship in 2016 but briefly parted ways in 2018 before Doncic was drafted by his team. They eventually found their way back into each other's arms and even spent the lockdown together.

Doncic was only eight when he started playing basketball with Olimpija teams. When he turned 13, the athlete's career became more serious, signing with Real Madrid and earning the MVP award at the Spain Championship.

At that time, Doncic was waiting out the pandemic for his games to resume while travel restrictions prohibited Goltes from flying home. Nevertheless, she liked living in Dallas as it reminded her of home. According to the New York Post, she said:

"I love that I get to spend some time with Luka [and their dogs] in the quarantine. We don't get to spend that many days together because we are always working on our individual things, so being able to spend time together feels very good."

The duo is going strong in their relationship as of writing. Although Goltes' social media presence is most felt in Slovenia, she also has many followers from the United States.

He has shown dedication and talent in the game he loves, ranking 11th all-time with 26 triple-doubles in the league. Although dedicated to his craft, Doncic also ensures he spends time with his girlfriend.

Many successful athletes manage to balance their career and personal life, including NFL quarterback Michael Vick. Although Michael retired in 2017, he was able to raise a family while focusing on his career. Michael married Kijafah Vick in 2012 and had four children together.

Like Goltes, Michael's partner has her successes. She is the executive producer of "The Michael Vick Project" and "Baller Wives." She is also an entrepreneur with a company producing accessories, PnkElephant.
