In his second season in the NBA, Luka Doncic is the permanent astonishment. There is no night in vain for him, surpassing himself in the individual, the collective and, incidentally, also in the media. Before the Trail Blazers, another performance to remember. This time from triple, to win the match. Eight hits, his personal top, and triumph (120-112).

The Slovenian ended up rumbling the triple-double again, with powerful numbers: 35 points, eight rebounds and seven assists. But, in addition, Doncic was decisive in a victory – five consecutive points that unleashed the madness in the American Airlines Center – that further seats the Dallas Mavericks in the playoff positions of the Western Conference, which is the fourth consecutive victory of the franchise (and that still do not count on Porzingis).

From the beginning, Luka was a hammer in the offensive aspect. Dawned with four triples without failure, a whole sign. That, in addition, put the first advantages on the scoreboard, despite the opposition of Damian Lillard (34 points and 10 assists).

The player trained in the Real Madrid quarry had scored seven triples last December 28, 2018, in the defeat against the Pelicans. That was his top until this Friday, when he made eight of 12 attempts. Precisely its theoretically weakest point, since it had been dragging a bad run since the long distance launch. In his last six games, Doncic had only hit five of the 29 triples attempted (17.2%).

But Doncic's dominance, still not turning 21, is not trivial in the NBA universe. It remains among the most voted for the next Chicago All Star (He is the second most supported player with 4,598,323 supports, only behind LeBron James) and, in addition, it has already placed sixth in the list of best-selling shirts.

A list that LeBron James also leads, according to information from the league's commercial office itself. Although the new generations come stomping. So, the Greek Antetokounmpo is the second on the sales list, followed by Stephen Curry. Jason Tatum is fourth, James Harden fifth and Doncic sixth.
