I think it's tough to do broad strokes like that, imo. Giannis had some pretty rough times, if I remember his upbringing, for what he had to do to just have the basics. Whereas Luka has been in the spotlight and been celebrated for a long time (wasn't his dad a pro player?).

I do get your point though, I could see the appeal of stability (along with almost a quarter billion dollars) for someone like him, especially just having a kid/starting a family. I think it also matters if you are on a team that has a stable organization behind it. I think Edens and Lasry have done a good job of that.

Also, for those kids that jump ship on AAU or HS teams, while I personally am not a fan of it, I don't necessarily fault them. There are some scummy people trying to use those kids to make money. You got to do what you got to do.

Back to my other Luka comment in this thread, I absolutely think the Lakers are going to start laying tracks down for him now that Giannis isn't going there (or at least not likely going there), no matter how long they have to wait for him.
