Luka Dončić has filed court documents seeking dismissal of a child custody petition from his ex-fiancée Anamaria Goltes, sources told ESPN. The petition, filed in California earlier this month, sought child support and attorney fees from the Los Angeles Lakers star. Goltes, mother of Dončić's two daughters, filed the petition while living in Slovenia with the children.

This legal battle follows Dončić's recent filing of an interim injunction with Slovenian courts, seeking immediate contact with his daughters Gabriela and Olivia. The 27-year-old guard, who was traded from the Dallas Mavericks to the Lakers last February, maintains Texas residency. Sources indicate one daughter spent only three months in California last spring, while the other has never been to the state.

Dončić and the Lakers face the Orlando Magic Saturday, attempting to extend their eight-game winning streak. During this streak, Dončić has averaged 40.9 points, joining an elite NBA club that includes Wilt Chamberlain, Elgin Baylor, Michael Jordan, and James Harden as the only players to average 40-plus points over an eight-game stretch. The custody dispute adds a personal challenge to Dončić's professional momentum as he continues to dominate on the court.
