Luka Doncic asked the media, "Nobody's going to ask me about my defense?" after getting four steals and three blocks in the Mavs 128-114 win against the Suns on Dec. 25, 2023. The Phoenix Suns ran double teams at Luka Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks star picked them apart to set up easy baskets. It was even worse when the Suns left Doncic in one-on-one coverage. Luka Doncic scored 50 points to eclipse 10,000 for his career and had also 15 assists, lifting the Dallas Mavericks to the win. "He's one of the best in the world," Mavs coach Jason Kidd said. "As I've always said, we can't take him for granted. When he's feeling it, you're just trying to get him the ball as much as possible." They sure did against the Suns and Doncic made them pay for it. Doncic capped a Christmas Day full of NBA games with a stellar performance, hitting 8 of 16 from 3 and all 12 of his free throws. He eclipsed 10,000 career points in the first quarter to reach the milestone in 358 career games, seventh fastest in NBA history.
