Comical Video Shows Luka Doncic Was Extremely Hyped Up Before Historic Performance
The Mavericks star dropped 50 points and reached 10,000 career points on Monday night.
Luka Dončić dropped 50 points in the Dallas Maverick’s Christmas Day game vs. the Phoenix Suns game, and a video taken before the contest shows how hyped up Dončić was before he completed a historic performance.
Dončić was captured on video running down the hallway in Phoenix shouting “I’m fast! I’m fast! I’m fast!” while he zoomed by, making for a pretty comical video.
This energy seemed to help the 24-year-old as he officially scored his 10,000th point on Monday night, which makes him the fastest player to hit this milestone since Michael Jordan.
It was also Dončić’s sixth 50-point performance in his career, which places him behind Jordan (nine) and LeBron James (eight) for the most games hitting the 50-point mark before turning 25.
“I’m fast, I’m fast, I’m fast!”
