NBA – After the video of the sublime pass between the legs went viral, LeBron had strong words in response to magician Luka: ”

“Everyone knows…

Winning against the Lakers this Wednesday, the Mavericks can thank Luka Doncic for being more selfless than ever with eight assists in this game.

One of them surprised LeBron James and especially impressed viewers.

Luka Doncic is one of the players in good form at the end of the calendar year.

His performance was such that he appears in 2nd place in the latest standings in the MVP race, behind European rival Nikola Jokic.

But this is not the only group where the Slovenians are among the leaders. With a 10-5 record, his Mavericks team is currently ranked fourth in the West.

LeBron James strongly attacks Luka Doncic

To reach the Top 4 of the conference, the Mavs must defeat the Lakers on their home court this Wednesday (104-101).

A big result they got largely thanks to Doncic’s feat.

Because in addition to the 30 points scored by the latter, he made 8 assists for his teammates, including one that clearly and appropriately made LeBron James as well as the audience admire physical:

Even though he’s used to it, Luka Magic always finds a way to invent passes that make fans jump out of their seats.

Also an expert at spectacular saves, LeBron could do nothing but admire as his opponent slid the ball between his legs to hand it off to Josh Green.

There were no hard feelings for the King, who spoke highly of the Dallas star guard in front of journalists’ microphones:

Reporter: I know you’re a fan of Luka Doncic, based on how you’ve talked about him before. How far do you think he can go if he continues on this path?

LeBron James: He’ll go wherever he wants. It depends only on him. Everyone knows what he’s capable of on the mat, so there’s no doubt it’s up to him.

Magician Luka Doncic appears again. His pass sliding between LeBron James’s legs seemed almost supernatural to the audience, as did the pass from the King, who only saw the sky as the limit for his Slovenian counterpart.
