Dallas Mavericks star Luka Doncic welcomes new baby with fiancée

Luka Doncic will be absent from the Dallas Mavericks Friday night game against the Memphis Grizzlies due to the birth of his daughter.

Doncic and his fiancée, Anamaria Goltes, announced their child’s birth on Instagram. The post was a picture of the baby girl with the caption “Gabriela.” This is Doncic and Goltes’ first child together.

The pair were engaged in July in their native country of Slovenia.

Doncic and Goltes have known each other since childhood meeting at the seaside in Croatia.

The Mavericks had already scratched Doncic from the game but had only listed personal reasons for his absence.
