The Dallas Mavericks managed to overcome a second-half double-digit deficit to steal Game 6 at home to eliminate the Oklahoma City Thunder and advance to the Western Conference Finals.
Dallas looked like they were going to need to head back to Oklahoma City after falling behind by as many as 17 points but they rallied late in the third and fourth quarter to secure the win.
Luka Doncic, who has been hobbled by multiple lower-leg injuries, was brilliant as he posted another triple-double of 29 points, 10 rebounds, and 10 assists to go along with two steals.
Doncic’s gutsy performance was one of his best games in his career given what was at stake for both teams.
It was a masterful game from one of the best players in the league and he earned even more fanfare from the Dallas faithful after he took some time to sign autographs and take pictures with fans on his way out from the arena via Mike Leslie of WFAA.
“Luka Doncic took the time to sign some autographs and take photos with some lucky Mavs fans as he was leaving American Airlines Center last night,” Leslie reported
