Doncic has been raising eyebrows since entering the NBA. He won the Rookie of the Year accolade in his first season while showing the world what he could do with the Dallas Mavericks.

During the playoff series against the Clippers, Luka Doncic was in sensational form. He made the iconic buzzer-beater against the Clippers to force the series to six games. However, after losing Kristaps Porzingis to injury, Doncic could not single-handedly take the Mavericks past the Clippers. However, his performance in the series showed cause for excitement about the Mavs’ future.
This season, Doncic was expected to be an MVP contender. And while he started the season off slow, he is quietly transforming into one of the front runners for the accolade. However, the Mavericks have still not been one of the top teams in the conference as expected. Doncic himself noted that the team is struggling to adjust to the quick turnaround of the new NBA season.
