4. Historic Numbers

Luka Doncic is known for producing historic numbers. He accomplishes it on a nearly nightly basis anymore. Luka Doncic has 17 triple-doubles in his NBA career. That is by far the most by any player before turning 21 years old.

Doncic also holds the record for the fastest 35-point triple-double in NBA history.

He was the second rookie ever to average over 21 points, seven rebounds, and 5.9 assists per game for an entire season. Oscar Robertson was the other, but he was 22 years old at the time.

More. Should the Mavs trade Jalen Brunson?

Luka Doncic is producing numbers that no other 20-year-old has ever achieved in the history of the NBA. That is what makes him stand out in both the All-Star and MVP conversations. He is literally the first player to do these things.

The impressive and historic stats should only improve as Luka continues to develop. He is the third-leading scorer in the NBA this season. It would not be surprising to see him vault into the top spot over the next three years. Doncic is also third in assists and 18th in rebounds. He could legitimately average a 30-point triple-double per game for an entire season during this decade.

The ability to consistently produce historic stat line will have fans recognizing Luka Doncic as the top player in the 2020s.
