The engines are all revved up and ready to start the Luka Doncic and Kristaps Porzingis Era. All that remains is for this dynamic duo to put the pedal firmly to the metal and begin what the Dallas Mavericks believe will be the beginning of something very special.
While clicking on all cylinders last season, Doncic used his self-propelled jet fuel and passionate play to become a runaway winner of the NBA Rookie of the Year trophy after he averaged 21.2 points, 7.8 rebounds and six assists per game. The 6-7 point guard walked into the NBA after being the best player in Europe, and then quickly showed that he was already wise beyond his then teenager years.
