In case you didn’t know already, Luka Doncic is pretty good at basketball. The Slovenian superstar has been making defenders look rather foolish ever since he came into the NBA, but he is playing arguably the best basketball of his career at the moment.
The San Antonio Spurs were the latest victim of a Doncic onslaught, as he finished with 51 points as the Dallas Mavericks came away with a 126-125 win. It was the third time in the last 5 games that Doncic scored 50 or more, and he is on a tear at the moment.

50 PTS – 8 REB – 10 AST – 56% FG
32 PTS – 9 REB – 9 AST – 56% FG
60 PTS – 21 REB – 10 AST – 67% FG
35 PTS – 12 REB – 13 AST – 52% FG
51 PTS – 6 REB – 9 AST – 62% FG pic.twitter.com/MqTVTQAAP0

NBA fans were amazed by this stretch of dominance from Luka.
“Anyone who still believes Jokic deserves MVP over Luka is a disgrace to society all due respect”
“Best international player of all time”
“easily mvp and it’s not close”
“Bro comin for Wilt Chamberlain “
“He’s the NBA’s Next Goat “
“Look at those stats not just points. He is unreal.”
“This league is just too easy for him”
“simply HIM.”
“This man is insane “
“No way this is real! These are video game stat lines.”
“Mf wasn’t lying when he said scoring was easy.”
“this is truly insane”
“YOUNG GOAT!!!”
“He’s Top 2 and ain’t 2”
“This man is on a different planet “
“Just a ridiculous run this guy is on!”
“If the Mavs get him help it’s a wrap Omg”
“Special special kid, genuinely an all time great coming if he stays injury free! BABY BIRDDDD”
“Luka owns the league now.”
“Luka’s skill level is top-5 in nba history.”
He is just putting up absurd numbers right now. For most players, the performance that Luka put up here against the Spurs would be the highlight of their season, but Luka isn’t like most players. That 60-point game against the Knicks was just on another level, and the way he is going, you wouldn’t be shocked if he has another one like that.
Bill Simmons Thinks Luka Doncic Could End Up As The All-Time Leading Scorer
His latest explosion meant Luka has now scored 8,124 points in his career in less than 5 seasons. Bill Simmons had a warning for LeBron James that he better keep playing and adding to his points tally even after he surpasses Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, as Luka might be capable of surpassing him in the future.
It is going to be very difficult even for Luka, as we know what it has taken LeBron to get to this point. The biggest roadblock for Doncic probably will be his fitness, as he is not in the same league as James when it comes to that aspect. It is hard to see Luka playing for as long as LeBron has, but stranger things have happened, so you can’t completely dismiss the idea.
