Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic perfectly executed an incredible trick shot by shouting “bounce” just before taking the long-range jumper.
Cameras caught Doncic “bouncing” off teammate Dereck Lively II, who was holding an NBA TV microphone. The Slovenian star then sent the ball towards the net from well beyond the left hash and near the touchline.
The high-curved shot then bounced into the paint and ended up in the basket – just as the five-time All-Star predicted.
Doncic has converted a lot more than trick shots this season. He is averaging nearly a triple-double per game with an astonishing 34.2 points, 8.8 rebounds and 9.5 assists through 47 games.
His heroics throughout the season have led the Mavericks to a 32-23 record heading into the All-Star break. Dallas currently sits in seventh place in the Western Conference.
