Prodigious Luka Doncic. The young Slovenian, on a leg and a half, has yet another extraordinary match to allow Dallas to equalize against the Clippers (2-2) in the first round of the Eastern Conference play-offs on Sunday night. Doncic scored 43 points, including the three-point basket from the win (135-133) at the overtime buzzer. Magistral.

Last season's top rookie also picked up 17 rebounds and delivered 13 assists, becoming the youngest player in NBA history to land a triple-double to at least 40 points in the playoffs. He joins Charles Barkley and Oscar Robertson in the 40/15/10 club.
The admiration of LeBron and Steph Curry
To say that 48 hours earlier, Doncic sprained his ankle in Game 3… What a contrast between his dismay at the time and the rage that accompanied his incredible shoot, after 46 minutes of effort. "When I saw the ball come in and the whole team run towards me, it was one of the best moments of my life as a player," he said after the meeting.
His performance stunned the entire NBA. LeBron James, Damian Lillard or Stephen Curry, all experts in the field, have expressed their admiration on social networks. The Clippers, they can blame themselves for having squandered 21 points in advance. Roll on game 5, on the night of Tuesday to Wednesday.
