Luka Doncic destroys Antetokounmpo’s tough defense

With only 3 minutes into the fourth quarter, Doncic had Giannis guarding him. Antetokounmpo is a great defender, though sometimes not as good on the perimeter. Luka played like it was a mismatch for him, as he crossed Giannis with his signature step back three. The step back was followed by nothing but net swish. Giannis had recovered well and put up a great contest, but Doncic had no problem with his high arcing shot. The swish had the fans in a frenzy.

This shot put Mavericks up by 2, with nine minutes to close out.  As the Mavs continued extending their lead over the Bucks. Luka finished the game with 32 points, 8 rebounds, and a whopping 15 assists, generating more than 62 points. Whereas, the MVP candidate Giannis put up 28 points, 10 rebounds, and 2 assists.
