Everyone knows that Luka Doncic of the Los Angeles Lakers is a huge offensive threat, and that was definitely true on Tuesday night.
Doncic went off with his 31 points, 12 rebounds, and nine assists over the Minnesota Timberwolves.
In a game that featured a lot of problems from beyond the three-point line, Doncic still posted a couple of impressive shots from downtown.
A video shared by the league on X featured Doncic scoring his three-pointer and then bragging about it to the rest of his team.
“After the shot, I looked at the [Timberwolves] bench. I knew it was going in. I did my best Steph impression,” Doncic said during the timeout.
Luka: “After the shot… I looked at the bench… I did my best Steph impression.”

Doncic can often go off from beyond the arc, but he was having trouble on Tuesday.
He sank just two of his eight field goal attempts from that area, but he wasn’t the only one struggling.
Anthony Edwards was 2-of-8, Jaden McDaniels was 0-of-3, Austin Reaves was 0-of-6, and LeBron James was 1-of-5.
People were just having a hard time from a distance during the game.
Still, there is no doubt that Doncic is one of the most skilled shooters in the league.
He has performed some amazing circus shots that have to be seen to be believed.
He might not be as talented a three-point shooter as Steph Curry, but he certainly can silence opponents with this type of shot.
Doncic’s playoff start with the Lakers has been historic, and he has had two games over 30 points.
But he will need to keep playing like this as the games shift to Minnesota, where the Timberwolves will be eager to take a series lead again.
