Luka Doncic is unreal.
The Dallas Mavericks star had a triple-double for the ages Tuesday night, scoring 60 points, grabbing 21 rebounds and 10 rebounds in a 126-121 overtime win over the New York Knicks. This is the first and only time in NBA history that a player has had 60 points, 20 rebounds and 10 assists in a single game. On top of all that, Doncic missed an intentional free throw, jumped a second and hit a shot to send the game into overtime, scoring 7 of the Mavs’ 11 points in overtime.
As befits such a historic performance, pundits from the sports world and beyond paid tribute to Doncic on social media.
Luca, I’m having fun!
