If it wasn’t already clear, the Dallas Mavericks star is an elite player. With his performance in the second game of the 2024 NBA Finals he further cemented that point by surpassing His Airness, Michael Jordan.

Luka Doncic is not playing around

Knowing that they couldn’t afford to go 2-0 down to the Boston Celtics, the Mavericks were always going to come out hot in Game 2 of the 2024 NBA Finals. With that, we all knew that Luka Doncic in particular was going to bring heat. What we could not have expected is that he would do so in a way that is simply crazy. Indeed, with 23 points, 3 rebounds, and 3 assists by halftime, Doncic wasn’t just having a good night, he was having a record-breaking night.
