With just three minutes left, the Dallas Mavericks were trailing the Nets by five points in their game on Friday. But then something incredible happened – Luka Doncic took over. Finishing with a whopping 49 points, Doncic hit four amazing three-pointers in a row, each one more difficult than the last. The highlight of the game was a stunning bank shot while he was almost falling out of bounds, which turned out to be the game-winner.
During his postgame interview, Doncic confidently claimed that he meant to bank in that last shot. And who can question him? He has proven time and time again that he is capable of extraordinary feats on the court. In addition to his impressive scoring performance, Doncic also contributed 10 rebounds and seven assists. He was incredibly efficient, making 16 of his 25 shots, including 9 of 14 from beyond the arc and 8 of 10 free throws. And the most astonishing part? Not a single turnover.
Despite some criticism of his playing style and his interactions with officials, Doncic’s undeniable talent and dominance make him one of the elite players in the world of basketball. Only a few players like Nikola Jokic and LeBron James can even come close to matching his skill and strength. Doncic once again delivered the impossible to secure a victory for the Mavericks and maintain their perfect 2-0 start to the season.
