A breakdown of every reaction to Luka Doncic’s put-back dunk

It might go down as the dunk. The dunk. As in ten years from now we’ll say “Remember that Luka dunk?” and everyone will know exactly what you’re talking about.

Luka Doncic’s game isn’t exactly built for highlight reels. The most exciting part of his game are his unique and preposterous passing. But everything else is just a steady dissection of an opponent’s defense, subtle changes in direction and slight pump fakes that get defenders off balance. It’s almost as if he’s the result of a mad scientist’s experiment to combine James Harden with Tim Duncan.
