“We were talking about the game last night and the trainers were working on me and they were joking that Luka works harder on the trick shots that he does on his actual game.”
He added, “That’s not obviously true because Luka’s you know an MVP candidate he clearly works on his game but it’s just something that’s fun to him and you can tell that he just you know in the two weeks I’ve been around the team you can tell that he just enjoys playing.”
“It is just a game to him and you know he made a shot in warm-ups the other day before the Philly game that went viral where he’s you know juggling the ball to himself and he shoots it behind the backboard from 30 feet and makes it these are it’s just fun to him.”
Doncic is certainly enjoying his time with the Mavericks. After a tumultuous start to the season, the Slovenian and the Mavs are in a firm position to make the play-in tournament and can possibly make it to the playoffs.
