Luka Doncic is firmly in the MVP race, arguably the best young superstar in the league. The Slovenian guard has been torching just about every opponent this season, putting up some absurd stat lines. But while Luka is a killer on the court, his personality is quite chill and almost a little goofy. 

Luka Doncic has had some really funny moments recently, he famously shushed his home fans after hitting a big shot and then claimed he didn’t know why he did that. Even his reaction to his historic performance against the New York Knicks was quite funny. And the latest goofy moment occurred when Luka Doncic was asked about the contributions of his teammate, Josh Green. 


Luka Doncic Stopped Himself After Saying Something Wild About Josh Green In An Interview

There is a trend that involves saying the word ‘pause’ after mistakenly making an innuendo of some sort while speaking. Kevin Durant caught himself similarly while talking during an interview a while ago, and now it would seem that it’s Luka’s turn to do the same. After the Dallas Mavericks‘ impressive win against the Miami Heat, Luka Doncic was asked about what Josh Green brings to the game, and he had to catch himself during the answer he gave, leading to laughs from Reggie Bullock.

“I mean it’s great you know he’s just out there. He comes with a lot of energy — oh s**t my bad, pause. With the energy he brings you know it’s just really good so he just really helps us a lot.”

This is probably thanks to the fact that he would be made fun of in the locker room if he didn’t acknowledge the double meaning of what he had said. The NBA is a serious business, and the stakes are always high, but moments like this are a reminder of the fact that it is still a game, and that players are just often having fun on and off the court. 

Normally, this might not have drawn much attention, but in this situation, Luka drew attention to it himself, and that caused his reaction to go viral. The energy around the Dallas Mavericks hasn’t only been positive recently but moments like this show that Luka Doncic isn’t buried under the pressures of carrying the franchise.
