Astute viewers will notice something absent from the title of this video. That’s right: I neglected to include the qualifier “Career High”, even though 32 points is indeed Luka Doncic’s career high in points scored. After much introspection and soul-searching, I was able to accumulate in one place enough of the mysterious substance called “optimism”…

Luka Doncic 23 Points/12 Assists Full Highlights (12/18/2018)
Attention Luka Doncic: you’re still a totally rad dude, but you’re going too far down the James Harden road by drawing all these fouls. Harden is an elite player who absolutely deserved his MVP and helps his team wins tons of games, but does anyone actually watch his highlights? No, at least compared to other…

We’re in game two of the Luka Doncic/Dirk Nowitzki experiment, and I still haven’t seen a single completed lob between the two of them. I’m not picky. I would accept either a Doncic-to-Nowitzki alley-oop connection, or a Nowitzki-to-Doncic alley-oop connection. Is that so much to ask? But not only have I not seen any lobs…

The demise of the Rockets continues apace as a previously-struggling Luka Doncic scores 11 straight points near the end of the fourth quarter to put the Mavericks over the top. If I was a normal person who hadn’t boxed himself into a corner by writing more and more outlandish descriptions for NBA highlight videos on…

Another game for Luka Doncic where he doesn’t seem to be doing that well and then you look at the boxscore at the end and what do you know, he has 20 points again. That’s how players average 20 points, you know. They don’t always do it in an exciting, in your face way. They…
Read MoreLuka Doncic 20 Points/1 Dunk Full Highlights (11/28/2018)
Luka Doncic’s dunk tonight will really spice up my end-of-season Luka Doncic Dunkilation which, up until tonight, was looking really, really lame. He’s an NBA player and kind of tall, so he can dunk, but that’s all you can say about him in that area. That he can do it. There was some power behind…

I wasn’t going to make this video on account of how many free throws Luka Doncic had, but screw it. I’m hovering in a strange state between consciousness and unconsciousness right now, my inhibitions are lowered, and after all, he did score 21 points. That’s more than his average. After that last “assist” to Harrison…

I was previously a critic of how ragged-looking Luka Doncic was earlier in the season, and I don’t think that was unfair. He looked like he just woke up in the grittiest Ljubljana alleyway with his pockets pilfered and a nasty hangover. But now I think he’s gone a bit too far in the other…
Read MoreLuka Doncic 22 Points/8 Assists Full Highlights (11/10/2018)
The main difference between the Luka Doncic from this game and the Luka Doncic from previous games: he was getting assists by finding three-point shooters. That’s, like, the easiest way to get assists in the NBA, but he’s been stubbornly trying to get people layups and stuff. That’s great when you can do it, but…

I’m feeling a Luke Doncic floater-ilation coming at the end of the season. No guarantees, because that would be harder than my usual compilation (three-pointers and dunks are easier to quantify than what exactly a floater is), but it would be probably the sickest thing ever. Sicker than the Dirk fadeaway-ilations I made. Those got…
