Friday, January 26, is a date that Luka Doncic and Mavericks fans will never forget. The Mavs star had a nearly flawless game in his team’s road win against the Hawks (148-143), with a personal best 73 points on 75.8% FG shooting, 10 RBS and 7 AST. Almost as noteworthy was the guard’s reaction after his historic feat.
Luka Doncic is seemingly embarrassed by attention after epic 73-point night
A video captured by the Dallas Mavericks showed Doncic heading towards the visiting locker room in Atlanta’s State Farm Arena. The Slovenian was received by a hyped up Kyrie Irving, who missed the game due to injury. Irving was almost too enthusiastic for Doncic, as the point guard dapped him up and said he needs to have ‘more swag’ after his epic performance.
Luka Doncic was ‘too tired’ to celebrate his 73-point night
“Can we talk about it? Bro, you gotta give the cameras something, bro. You don’t just score 73 and give the cameras nothing, bro. I need a little more swag, bro”, Irving told Doncic. “Amazing, I’m too tired, man”, the star of the night replies.

“I’m tired as shit”, Doncic says preceded by a few ‘thank yous’ to his coach and all those present in the Mavs locker room. His teammates can’t help but laugh. In a memorable night, the star has more than earned his right to be exhausted.
