On Christmas Day, Luka Doncic delivered a spectacular performance, scoring 50 points and providing 15 assists to lead the Dallas Mavericks (18-12) to a decisive 128-114 victory over the Phoenix Suns (14-15).
The Slovenian superstar achieved a significant milestone, surpassing 10,000 career points in just 358 games, securing the seventh-fastest entry into this exclusive club in NBA history.
Despite facing a chorus of boos from Suns fans during warmups and the game, Doncic remained unfazed, embracing the hostile environment. When asked about the reception after the game, he expressed his enjoyment of playing in such atmospheres.
“It’s great. I love playing in these environments, especially away. It’s fun for me. When you make a shot, the whole gym is quiet. That is the best feeling in the world,” Doncic remarked.
