Snoop was right, though.
Magic Johnson was Finals MVP at 20, after stepping in for the regular season MVP Kareem in the closing game.
Luka ended up justifying a lot of the hype, but the "best at this age", "best by this season" stuff is just cheap content that sports media feeds people to hype current stars up.
Magic came into the league NBA star level, but on serious contender with ALL TIME GREAT center, there was a pecking order and he stayed in line. That Final game statline let you know what he was capable of, though.
42 points, 14 rebounds, 7 assists, 3 steals, 1 block
