LIV Golf’s Matthew Wolff drops bombshell statement while picking between LeBron James and Luka Dončić – “Neither”

LIV Golf RangeGoats stars, including Matthew Wolff, recently picked their favorite between Los Angeles Lakers veteran LeBron James and new recruit Luka Dončić. Among the four teammates, Wolff gave the most controversial answer along with a piece of criticism.

A couple of days ago, Luka Dončić was traded from the Dallas Mavericks to the Los Angeles Lakers, the team where LeBron James currently plays. Following this recent development, the RangeGoats social media team decided to ask the team members to pick between the two.

The first to respond was captain Bubba Watson, who offered a genuine response, saying he didn't want to pick one.

"Why pick? Since I have both of them on the same team."

However, Wolff gave a blunt and controversial answer.

"Neither," he replied. "None of them play defense."

Matthew Wolff also mentioned that he wasn’t a fan of either of them. However, he went on to pick Doncic and revealed his true favorite.

"I like Ant (Anthony Edwards of Minnesota Timberwolves)," he said. "Ant’s my guy."

Peter Uihlein chose Luka based on his current form. When Watson was insisted again to pick one, he opened up a bit and expressed his love for Lebron James.

"Well, listen, I like LeBron 'cause he’s athletic. Mature, handsome. These are tough questions. I have LeBron’s rookie card, so I’m going with LeBron," he said.
