Luka Doncic Just Beat the Clippers at the Buzzer and You Have to See It

I’m so freakin’ jealous.

The Mavericks have found themselves a bonafide superstar in Luka Doncic. During just his second season in the NBA, Doncic has led Dallas to a 43-32 record and the 7th spot in a tough Western Conference.

Now in the midst of a tough first-round matchup against the Los Angeles Clippers, Doncic is playing some of his best basketball.

The second-year stud dropped a 43-point triple-double (17 rebounds, 13 assists) on Sunday and hit the game-winning 3 at the buzzer to save his team from a 3-1 deficit.

I know this is BN Bulls, but when we see insane basketball, we’ve got to share it:

I’m not saying I’d sell my soul to get Doncic on the Bulls … but I’m also not not saying that.

Anyway, his absolutely savage performance caught the attention of many in the sports universe:

Feel free to do that tampering thing and get Doncic to Chicago, Zach.
