After missing the (lost) game against the Rockets, Luka Doncic signed his return against decimated Nuggets (Nikola Jokic, Jamal Murray and Aaron Gordon absent) with an excellent game once again: 33 points, 12 rebounds and 11 assists.
This is his fourth triple-double of the season and the 50th of his career, already. Doncic only needed 278 matches to reach this figure, and only Oscar Robertson (111) was faster than him since Magic Johnson needed… 279 matches.
“He rewrites the book of records”notes Jason Kidd, one of the kings of the triple-double (107 career), who had made his 50th in his 649th match, for ESPN. “That’s pretty cool. Oscar is unique, so getting behind him shows how unique Doncic is. »
The Texan All-Star validated his triple-double with a rebound at the start of the fourth quarter, when he is usually on the bench at this time of the game, and especially since Dallas had a twenty-point lead.
“We wanted to make sure we won this game. I asked to start the quarter because I had a day off. he says to the franchise websitebefore reacting to his performance. ” It’s incredible. I always have the same answer: it’s a pleasure. »
