Dallas Mavericks talisman Luka Doncic is in the form of his life. Recently, Luka Doncic scored a historic triple-double (60 points, 21 rebounds, 10 assists) in the comeback win over the New York Knicks in overtime. Doncic continued his dream form to score 51 points and help his team beat San Antonio Spurs by 126-125 on Saturday night.

The Slovenian had two rebounds and two free throws in the last 4.5 seconds of the game to help his team clinch the thrilling contest. This is the third 50-point game for Doncic in the last five outings.

Mavericks center Christian Wood feels Doncic is playing like an MVP and rated him as one of the best players in the NBA.

“It’s incredible,” Mavericks center Christian Wood said as quoted by ESPN. “In my seven years in the league, I’ve never seen anybody do what he’s able to do. He’s on an incredible run. He’s playing like an MVP. Clearly one of the best players in the league.”

Mavericks head coach Jason Kidd admitted it’s not easy to win in San Antonio but gave credit to Doncic for coming up with an incredible performance.

“Not easy to win here,” Mavericks coach Jason Kidd said. “But, again, Luka was incredible. He bails us out again by missing the free throws as much as he wanted to make those free throws down the stretch, so that they didn’t have time to set up a play.”

On the other hand, Spurs head coach Gregg Popovich also showered praise on Luka Doncic for his exemplary performance.

“Yeah, we had a good team effort and individual effort on him, but he’s an amazing player,” Popovich said. “His IQ is off the charts. So, we would rather win than lose like everybody else in the world, but [I’m] really proud of their effort and the way they just kept going even after we got down whatever it was, 13, 14, I can’t remember.”

The Mavericks have won their last six matches and they will look to continue the good show. They will next face Houston Rockets on Monday night.
