Luka Doncic turned in yet another sensational textbook performance Monday night, dancing and prancing his way past Brooklyn while helping the Dallas Mavericks eke out a hard-fought 96-94 win over the Nets at American Airlines Center.
Doncic finished with 36 points, six rebounds and six assists and has now scored 30 or more points in all nine of the Mavs’ games this season. The only player who opened the season with a longer 30-point plus scoring streak in NBA history is Wilt Chamberlain, who tallied 30 or more points in the first 23 games of the 1962-‘63 season.
