Luka Doncic is outpacing the greatest Maverick of all time in a critical way

Playing for a franchise that had Dirk Nowitzki, Luka Doncic is the most impressive stat-getter in Dallas Mavericks history.

Playing for a franchise that had Dirk Nowitzki, Luka Doncic is the most impressive stat-getter in Dallas Mavericks history.

At 23 years old, Doncic has the most triple-doubles, 45-point games, 50-point games, 30-five-five games, 40-five-five games, 30-point 10-assists games, and 40-point 10 assists games in Mavericks history.

Yes, you read that right. Don't believe me, see for yourself:

Recently, Doncic only bolstered his legend when he scored 50 points against the Houston Rockets on Friday.

He did so by way of playing 42 minutes, shooting 17-for-30 from the field, and 6-for-12 from 3-point range.

It was one of those rare games where everything was working for Doncic. And good thing because Dallas needed every bit of his offensive explosion.

Doncic collects impressive stat lines like infinity stones. His per-game averages are absurd: 32 points, 8.7 assists, and 8.3 rebounds. There are several games where he sleepwalks to a triple-double or 30-point half. It's the way he's wired.

So, it comes as no shock that on the Mavericks leaderboard, he is the franchise's elite stat-getter. On-court dominance comes naturally to him.

Though Nowitzki may be the best Maverick ever, Doncic will no doubt have an argument for himself when it's all said and done.
