Luka Doncic, fueled by Phoenix Suns' trash talk, leads Dallas Mavericks to first elimination-game win of his career

DALLAS -- For the second time in a span of three possessions, Dallas Mavericks superstar Luka Doncic drove straight down the lane and finished with a two-handed dunk.

The top-seeded Phoenix Suns, trailing by 20 points midway through the third quarter of Thursday's Game 6, called timeout, providing Doncic a chance to extend his post-dunk celebrating beyond the flexing and snarling he did after several baskets in the Mavs' series-evening 113-86 rout at the American Airlines Center. Doncic strutted out to halfcourt, aggressively nodding his head and shouting in the direction of the Suns' bench.
