The Most Magical Luka Doncic Moments

Nothing shocks me about this game. And that Drew Rimm, it's still loose! Some color to that. That doesn't need color. It really doesn't. That's just... That's a wheel. Got it, into the corner, Luka! How did he miss? Luka! Look at this. God, what a pass. Got it off in time, plenty of time. What a shot. Wow. He is a special young man. There's no question about it. By the way, that was a heck of a pass by Brunson. Yes, it was, but... Donchich hands the ball. Down by two. There's the switch. Go Bears out there. Donchich. Maneuvers for the lead. Got it! A shot! Dallas has taken the lead! But coach, look at this. He had him on skates from the beginning. My goodness. Dancing with the stars, whatever you want to call it. Away from the closeout. Luka maneuvers away from the closeout. Real nice. Been a timeout call, but we ain't going nowhere. We're going to let you look at this again a time or two. Look at that face. Got to get it in. Here's Luka. Gets it away. It's good! A Donchich dagger! He wins it as he was stumbling. He somehow got it to go. What a shot. And what a dagger for Memphis. I mean, falling forward, stumbling out of control. He's at the rim when the ball goes through the net. His momentum carrying him forward. Hand off back to Luka. Late in the shot clock. Four seconds. Got it from Kleba. Again late in the clock. In desperation. By Luka. That is insane. Midpoint of the third quarter. Dallas down by 13. Behind the back. Behind the back again! And a slam dunk by Colley Stein. A double behind the back. How about that for the triple-double now for Luka. What a tenth assist. Oh, that's fine. That'll make the nice pass. They don't seem to have any answer whatsoever. Well, they're not the Lone Ranger in that regard. Luka has done this to many teams this year. What? I'm ready to leave, man. No, you got to stay. Gafford on the leak out. Here is that outrageous scoop. What do I do? I just throw it up underhand. That's crazy. Wood with the pass. Luka able to chase it down. They got him trapped on the sideline. They fouled in a situation like that before. How on earth did he find Hardy? Found him. And more importantly, Hardy hit the shot after they did find him. You're not going to win it. He'll find you. He just looked up and realized we're the only place he could put that ball. Jayden Hardy in the corner locked and loaded. This is beautiful. Seems like a simple thing, but you saw him look up. Yeah. And he surveyed the landscape. And Charlie Brown getting some early minutes here. Todd Gibson on the floor as well. And how open Luka Doncic with a little spice. This is – come on. Oh, that was right-handed. He did turn around. Nonetheless. Luka against Austin Rivers. Preaching down towards a minute to play in the first quarter. Luka with a step up from the baseline. What? On the double, Finney Smith. Bullock, he's driving it. And looks for Finney Smith. It's a loose ball. And Luka picks – The beauty of all of this is the ball movement is excellent. This time Luka not able to make the pass, but the basket. Finney Smith to inbound. Back to Doncic. Doncic pulls up. Three-pointer. Bang. It's good. Doncic wins the game at the buzzer. Teeter-totter back and forth. Doncic. Into Jackson Hayes. What a pass. Jackson three-pointer. What a pass. How did he get that through? Look at this pass here. I mean, wow. You got to stay engaged. Here is Luka. What a fancy pass for Woods Alleyou. Doncic. Down to three seconds. Two seconds. Doncic for the win. Oh, yeah. Luka Doncic. The digger. On consecutive possessions and down the stretch, Luka gets to his spot, step back. Here's a switch. It's Luka against Josh Richardson. Left side of the floor. Luka's three. It's a rake. Facundo Compasso in the game. Doncic. Oh. Bounce pass from a sitting position, and it was an absolute dive. Away from Luka. Into the backcourt. He'll pick it up. Six seconds. Five seconds. It's going to take some Luka magic to save the possession. And that's what it is. Ten to two-one right now for the Timberwolves. Oh, my goodness. What a find by Luka. Through the legs of Torian Prince. Minnesota had Luka contained. Make a couple highlight shows. I mean, right between the legs of Torian Prince, and Cleaver was in the exact right spot for that. He goes quick here. I'd get up and get two guys on him right now. Doncic with the desperation. Oh, spectacular. Absolute last thing he wanted to do. And again, guys, I've been part of some four-point play on the other end here. You just have to stay away from Doncic. Let's go. Wow. That's what they call a Stein. Hey, Joe, if you just get a chance, you're going to like him. The more and more you see him, the more you're going to like him. Luka gets the treble on the move. Wow. Amazing. Wow. Nine-point lead. Second year in the league after two years collegiately at Virginia Commonwealth. And knifing through the defense and all the way to the hole. Christian Wood again. I think they're going to wave off the end one basket. Yeah. He still scores anyhow. Luka takes it inside, and Powell cleans up the mess. Wood screams. Luka drives. Achua up on Luka. Luka has got him in the blender. That is played as meaning to someone. Through traffic. Wow. Green had time to bubble it twice, and he still hit it. Unreal. Luka threw that pass right between Bron's legs. That defensive rebound. Can you do this? No. That is. I'll tell you what. Not even in my dreams. Look at this. 13 of 25 from three as a team. Doncic got that one to go. Leaning and leaping Luka Doncic. Here's a small guy right here. Fourth time down. The Luka magic is back. Tossed in the circus shot with a foul as well. Well, Corey had one arm. Luka has two, and he uses the other one. That's just crazy focus, man. Boston up by one. Doncic, the handles, the fake, the fade. It's pure Luka Doncic with a fadeaway three to put Dallas in front by two. And much needed as well in this series. 19 for Thompson. Nine at the half. Luka. Hit hammers so far. 61% early stages. What a pass by Doncic. What? Lasers it in to Christian Wood. Look at this frozen rope pass here by Doncic. He's looking at us. Look at that. He's not shot the three well early on this season, but we're seeing different looks from the Nets, whether they're saying single coverage or sending a second at him early. Load it up. Taking his time, posting up a little fake. Tries to throw the lob, but, you know, look, sometimes, sometimes... Using the screen, backing away. One-on-one with Lopez. Doncic. Got a little foul trouble. They went away from him. And here is Luka. Think through the defense. Nice spin. No look. Tim Waterway Jr. Down to eight. Takes it in. Dallas has got the lead. Doncic throws down a sledgehammer. Don't sleep on Luka. Drove it early. Had to mismatch. You thought I was going to lay it up. No, I'm flushing it on you. Seven points for him. The twirling Doncic. Melting into the defense. Got it and a foul. I'm going to count them out for you. There's one, okay? You want to dance? Watch a little Kevin McHale shuffle, and then, okay, I'll come right back into your body. Three minutes gone by here in the first. Doncic fakes the behind-the-back pass. Count it. And one for Luka. They called it on bled zone. Side out. Doncic between the legs. To Kleba, soars to the rim. Stuffs it in his mouth. An incredible play by Luka. Pass. Wow. 19th assist. What he's doing right now to this Bucs defense against great defenders like Drew Holliday can't be overstated. Luka using the body to get him off and then just the beautiful behind-the-back pass and Kleba able to knock it down. Two on the shot clock. Doncic for three. Doncic, that low dribble. Help. Doncic behind the back. Luka Doncic. Wow. In his bag. I think Jason Kidd likes that one. Yeah, I caught a couple of passes from him back in the day. Fifth-year player from Colorado, half-court heave. And Luka back at home. Dick has made everybody who. Barclays Center. Washington the board. Oh, another banger for Dallas. It's lively. Ten-point accuracy to set it up for the slam. Seven-nothing run. Nice double-team by Dallas and Jabari Green. Paid up some time on the clock. Oh, and Yo-Yo it on the dribble. He hit him with the yokey-doke. 44. He can shoot, though. I'm not going to bust your bubble on that. No bubble-busting, please. A long three. Oh, and speaking of a guy who can shoot. And off the glass, too. And now the lead is at 18. Doncic behind the back. Drops a dime and one inside. And what a way to register a triple-double. Terrific job of getting in the paint off the bounce. Every single night. Luka changing direction. Got him passed. Kenridge-Williams. What? Everybody's watching. Yeah, they're watching. And, man, oh, man, that's ignoring where to put that ball. One and two on the free-throw line. Cole Anthony had a catch in the paint for a finish with a foul. That's when he came into the game, but he makes his presence felt at the other end of the board. He's got a different role as a five-man. Puts it down off the paddle screen for an alley-oop finish. That's okay. Deep three. Banked it in. The legend of Luka is Carter. Stolen by Doncic. He was left out to dry, basically. That is so true. That is a tough place. Dan found the ball. Luka. Oh, happy birthday. Five to shoot. Against Hardy. Doncic lines it up. It goes. Is that good? With a minute 26 to go in L.A. Doncic will put it in. Hasn't scored since midway through the third. Denwood, he gives it right back. Shooter on Doncic. Three-pointer on its way for the time. It's gone. Doncic, a clutch three. Wiggins there and a quick show by Kerr. Now the blitz. He snaps it in the corner. Finney-Smith three. He's two and number one. How about this assist by Luka Doncic? Finds Finney-Smith in the corner, and he knocks it down. Father Tom is undefeated. Doesn't have the same speed as he once had, but has the upper body strength, so created space that time with his upper body shield. Wow, what a pass by Doncic inside to Finney-Smith. Doncic works his way in toward Brown. Trying to draw a foul. Still has the ball, and he scores. Oh, man. Brown, you got to pay attention there, homie. He's played well here with Toronto, though. Look at that pass. It is a sweet pass, and it's a big hit from the corner. Seeing a wide open Tim Hardaway, Jr. Just played 32 minutes. Drives on Nocev. Bounces off him once. Takes him down low. Up and under and down. What a play by Doncic, 22. They are 20-1. And here's Luka with the uh, uh. One more time. Let me give it to you like Kevin McHale used to give it to us. I'd rather make a shot than have good answers. I'm sorry. Good pass. Deep in the lane, Luka. A wide open Cleba knocks down his second three-pointer of the game. And here is Cleba, three-pointer number two on the money. You say you like it. I don't think any of us like it as much as Maxie likes it because he's. And the Nuggets moving inside. Good loose ball. Shot clock at two. Impossible shot. That was get to my spot and fire. Shooter shoot. Oh, and Curry with a good hand on the ball. Dislodged it on the Niang drive. And a fabulous pass. And it's Winston repeats. Win. Sooner or later he is going to get things going. Luka with a magnificent. A minute remaining in this game. Luka gets through the defenders. Powers up. Score it. 72 for number 77. That's five on four right now. Luka ready to have a go. This is all Luka here just attacking in the open court and showing off that tremendous skill. He'll turn 20 in February, next month, after his one year at Duke. Inside and Lively throws it down. Gets a lot of those from Dodgers. Those two have made a nice connection. In the first half until then. Luka, nice move. Wow. Through traffic. What a pass. Look at that. It's a nice look. How did he even have that? Indiana trip in January. Donchich. Wow. Nice. What a fine and what a jam by Kleba. Well, last minute. Take a look. Kleba made the cut. Donchich. Shot clock is winding down. Donchich. They're stripping at the ball. Donchich kick. Dinwiddie gets it off. And that hits Spencer Dinwiddie. Bullseye. Now he's got Capella on him, so he brings it back out for a reset. Five to shoot. Donchich behind the back. Here's the blow by the floater. It's good. First basket since the second quarter for Luka Donchich. Six seasons with Boston in two different stints. Here is Luka. Oh, what a pass. He was looking up top. What he's going to do after that, nobody knows. But he finds him. To give him the jump shot. What a pass by Luka to exit for three. Yes, sir. That's a lot of time to organize yourself. Kleba right there. At the outlet to Donchich. Good pass into Perzingis. What a throw inside by Luka Donchich on the assist. That throw right there lasers it in. Perzingis finishes. 20 points, 13 assists. Quickly in and out on a three. Look at this pass. And it's another long pass up the yard. For Dallas to extend this to a double-digit lead. That's awesome. Under a minute to go here in the first half. Stunning. 27-point lead. Down goes Johnson. Oh, no. They're shredding him. Oh, no, he didn't. In the league this year, Donchich right there. 27 points. Help bring us the product that we bring into your living room. Or wherever you watch your Hornets basketball these days. Oh, what a play. Donchich with a no-look. This Luka ball fake gets run off the line. Look at that. Thing of beauty. And Brunson has it back the other way for Dallas. Good transition D. My goodness. I mean, I'm telling you, he is uncanny. Killian Hayes up on Luka. Luka scored against him last time. And this ends up with a hands up. Dorian Benny Smith. Yes, sir. To make a play like this, you have to know where everybody is. Last minute. Hangs. Unbelievable pass. Yeah, it really was. Donchich, hold on. What a see by Luka. What a scream by Lively. Eagles up on Luka. Jazz have a foul to give. Defensive player is set. Harden trying to jam it in there. What an outlet pass. And Irving lays it in. Los Angeles to lead back up to ten. Donchich step back three. High arcing shot. He banks it in. Oh, Luka Donchich. Such a clutch three-pointer. Clay Thompson made one basket in the first half. Luka. Gafford slams it home. 30 straight. It's on Kyrie Irving. Luka with eyes in the back of his head. Gafford just hangs. 54% for the Mavs in the first half. Well, you can add the way Utah's bench has played as well. They've been terrific. A little signature moment here into the first half. 21 points now. The Timberwolves are going to need the mother of all comebacks in this one. Donchich inside. And that's the way it begins with a high-flying Washington from Luka. Mavs are out of timeouts. Shorten got the ball back for Dallas. Luka. He'll stop. He'll pop. He'll hit. Three-ball Dallas. Two-point lead on the road. Until Murray scored a point at the free-throw line. Luka drive. And what a pass. And then you finish it off. Luka flips it back, looking for his seventh assist. And he's got it. To go with seven rebounds and 16 first-half points. And the offense, they just don't have enough weapons with Davis out of the lineup. Oh, pretty. Donchich hangs but can't finish. Got the offensive rebound. Oh, and a fake. He totally faked that Gabriel and then just scored. He has such incredible patience. Now, once it goes up, see, he's following that shot. He's going to go down inside. Now watch. A little ball fake. Defender looks. He goes right back up. Rebound Wiggins. Another offensive board slap away by Green. Donchich is running. It's right down the middle for Donchich. Lob and slam. Gliding through the air. It's Jones with major elevation. And how about Derrick Jones? Wow. Long pass by Luka. Benny Smith, late clock. And Luka. Dallas, Texas. And Donchich. A little crossover and step back. Think about everything that Sabonis brings to the floor. Donchich on the okie-doke. Cleaver. Down it goes. Well, he's in position if he builds on what he's done in the first week of the season. To add another award to the trophy case as Luka dancing around on a bio. Wow. As we take a look at the torture chamber that Skan alluded to. Pretty good defense for about three or four seconds. And Luka got the best of it with that little shot fake there. That makes it a little more difficult for you here with only two minutes to go. They shot it well, but they've cooled off since the first half. Donchich knocks down the three as he's heating up at just the right time. Shot clock down to five again. Donchich. Long three-pointer. Bang! Luka Donchich from way downtown. Lead to the second shot. And then finally, a big time, another step back three by Donchich. Luka. Tricked him. Found Jordan. Marken has all five points for the Jazz so far in the second quarter. Luka goes away from the screen. And then through traffic, finds Gafford. And another tower of power slapped up by Gafford. Shin-Gun left his feet. It's Dinwiddie into Luka. Yeah, baby! Get it to fall. Capped out. And an extra possession. Clop. Donchich to Gafford. 7-0 Mavs. Against Giddey, and Irving will shoot the free throw. Trying to get himself right after a one of six Friday night shooting the ball against Denver. Powell, wide open lane. Coming over late, but too late and not big enough, strong enough to stop Powell. Patty Mills with a foul, but Powell has got a chance for a three-point play. Pocket pass that time from Luka Donchich. Sets the screen. Clippers without Serge Ibaka as well as Patrick Beverly. Donchich leans into Leonard, hits the three, puts the foul. Up until the lunge to try to contest the shot. And then the strength of Donchich to get hit and then still be able to shoot the ball from that range. Rebound by Exum. Donchich with another three. No, it hits widely. Timeout Miami. Beautiful, unselfish play here by Luka to find the rookie wide open underneath. Luka on the gallop. Behind the back. What a pass to Chris, and he laid it in. Yeah, it's showtime in Portland tonight. Yes, it is. The Mavs have clawed back from down 19. They are two down. Luka for the tie, and he got it. Tamla Burch, back up big man, and is out with a facial injury. Luka looks at the defense. There is Luka. He looked over at somebody in the front row, but he was passing to the guy at the rim, Dorian Vinnie Smith. Raptors in front right now by one. They've been led by Donchich. 14 points, five boards, four assists. He gets it on the inbounds and launches the three to beat the shot clock. Wow. A miscommunication there. Fade away, and that's what caused them, but you can see our guys knew they made a mistake right off the bat. It's picked up by Derek Lively. Donchich, look at that. What a pass indeed as he lasers one into Lively who puts up his eighth. Another block. I think four blocks there for Jones. Love it. Derek Jones, Jr., goes airplane mode. And beat couldn't get the catch inside. They're swarmed all over him. Donchich coming back the other way. That's the sixth turnover. Donchich catching bodies. Chin-up time on the rim. Luka detonating. Looks like heat check time for Donchich. Getting in his back. Full smoke for Luka. Larry Johnson with more points than Brandon. That's a good category. Donchich, look at that pass. He sets up Hardaway. It's always one guy that really stretches that percentage up. Oh, way up in Luka. Luka's rainmaker. He was really just trying to draw the foul and had the presence to get the shot up. It'd be one thing. Tatum step back three. No. Rebound poked through Lively's arms, but settles with Dallas. Oh, my. Donchich with the gorgeous no look. And Irving finishes it. There's no way. There was like no way that he was going to miss that shot. What have you done in those situations? A lot of times it's, come on, we know it's based around kind of teamwork. Yeah. But at the end of the day, when he's a star, this is what you focus on. Counting. Which. To add to it at the free throw line. I remember his rookie year we're in China, the China game, and watching him play in preseason. The thing that struck me, I said, listen. The Mavericks have a chance to tie or take the lead. It is Luka against Kenrich Williams. Love it. He's touched the ball every time Miami has had the ball. Offensively beautiful. Wow. And upstairs for the flush. We've seen him successful outside and now inside. Philadelphia by seven right now. Early second quarter. Nice pass by Luka Donchich to Powell for the flush. Got a hold of it. Launches it. You make him go back right. I don't think this is easy. Nice play there. Bullock for three on the money. Final seconds. Donchich. The bump in the pool. Firing. Good as it goes. Beat on that rebound. Pulled it down. His seventh one of the game. Luka inside. Lost the handle. Flipped it out. Kleba organized a shoot, and it's on the money. He doesn't see it. He feels it. Nowhere back's he was. Yeah. That's crazy. That's why you have Luka. The postgame interview with us. He was mad that he missed the ninth one. And it is Luka. And he puts it deep for that smile. That was a heat check. Is 29 by Dirk Nowitzki, and 28 is the number right now for a little bit of 21 to go in the first quarter. He's getting a well-deserved. Have closed the game. They have done exactly what you said they do, Harp. They play so hard. Everyone collapses on Luka, and Kleba hits a dagger. That's a big three. But didn't finish. Watch Willie run. Luka in transition. Looks off the defense, and he found that running. Willie Colley-Stein for the OOP. He looked up here at you. He looked like, hey, Luka, what's up? What's up, my man? Canard, a 40% three-point shooter. Oh. Behind the back. Oh. He may not be hitting his free throws, but sensational dodge. Mike Doncic in the strength department. Shot clock at four. Doncic with Randall on him. Long three-pointer. Puts it up. Shot. He banks it in. Luka Doncic from downtown. He smiles and laughs. So, this is the bank right here that's open for Doncic. Orlando's tie with Cleveland for the most games this year not reaching 114 of them. They made it to 100 here in the fourth quarter, but they've got no answer for stopping Luka and the Mavericks. This is the pull-up. There's Dorian again. Oh, what a pass from Luka. An excellent look at it from our incredible crew here in Dallas. And Doncic works the foul, banks it in, and will have a chance for three. From the Dallas Mavericks. At the end of the day, you've given up 54 points with nine minutes to go in the second. You've got to find a way to shut your mouth and begin to play with intensity. Capella switched on to Luka. Luka with the step-back three. Oh, yeah. Doncic. Oh, goes behind the back, the floater, you bet. Luka magic. Orange draws the defense. Touch pass by Matthews. Luke at the end of the shot clock. Got it back with Dennis. A one-handed three. Luka magic in the garden.
