Dallas Mavericks: Luka Doncic nails another impossible trick shot
By Tyler Watts
The Dallas Mavericks made it look easy as they crushed the New Orleans Pelicans 125-107 on May 12. Luka Doncic led the way with 33 points. Tim Hardaway Jr. stayed white-hot, and Kristaps Porzingis looked fantastic in his return to the floor in an incredible all-around performance from the Mavs.
It was an important win for Dallas too. They lowered their magic number to finish in the top six down to one. Dallas and Portland have identical records with the Lakers one game back in the standings. Each team has two games remaining, and every single one is massive in the race. Fans can see the scenarios of what can happen here.
Doncic caught fire in the second quarter on May 12. He hit a career-high-tying five 3-pointers in the period as the 22-year-old superstar helped the Mavs jump out to a massive lead. Luka had his impressive skill set on full display even before the ball tipped off, though.
Luka Doncic sinks impossible trick shot before Dallas Mavericks defeat Pelicans
Fans know Luka is always attempting impossible shots. He made another one during pregame warmups on May 12. See the incredible swish below.
Doncic’s reaction rivals the make. The 22-year-old just loves to play. He is always trying to invent on the court. Luka showed off his incredible skill with another impossible bucket.
Doncic had an important bounce back game too. He was coming off one of his worst of the season as the Grizzlies dominated the Mavericks. It was fantastic to see Luka catch fire and drop 33 on the Pelicans, but it should come as no surprise. The 22-year-old just keeps producing.
The Dallas Mavericks have two left in the regular season. They can clinch a spot in the top six with a win over the Toronto Raptors on Friday night. Fans will not want to miss it, so please tune in and enjoy the game.
