Luka Doncic made history in the NBA by scoring 73 points in Dallas Mavericks’ victory over the Phoenix Suns by 148-143.
An incredible night for the Slovenian. Doncic played the best game of his career, scoring 73 points with 10 rebounds and seven assists in his team’s victory. He became the fourth player with the most points in a single game, just behind Wilt Chamberlain and Kobe Bryant.
“The goal was to get a win, man. We’ve been struggling lately, the mindset was get a win. We played great. We struggled a little bit on defense, but we played great on offense.
I was just going, you know, whatever the defense give me. The second half, they doubled me all the time, so I tried to make some plays, and sometimes I would break the double. So, just seeing the game.”
Dante Exum and Josh Green
“It was great, just trust, I always trust my teammates. Making the right play, they’re (Exum and Green) always big time for us. Just the next man up mentality. Both were great today.”
Honor to Kobe Bryant
“It’s amazing, man. It’s very special. We all love Kobe man. It was a big tragedy, I can’t believe it’s been four years already. So it’s special, you know, to feel on the same day. But obviously, I wish he was here”
