LUKA DONCIC HAD his defender at his mercy, a step behind his right hip, as he drove down the middle.
It was clutch time in the Dallas Mavericks' season opener -- with 2:20 remaining and the Mavs down two points -- and San Antonio Spurs forward Keldon Johnson was trailing him coming off a high pick-and-roll. Doncic accelerated to stay a full step ahead of Johnson as Spurs center Zach Collins retreated in drop coverage, concerned that Doncic could throw a lob to rookie big man Dereck Lively II.
