In this story:
After a historic season averaging 33.9 PPG, 9.8 APG, and 9.2 RPG, a few were surprised to see Luka Doncic not win the 2023-24 Most Valuable Player award. His statistics haven’t been seen since the likes of Wilt Chamberlain and the Mavericks finished with 50 wins in a stacked Western Conference.
The people who thought he should’ve won MVP had their claims supported when he led the Mavs to the NBA Finals and won Western Conference Finals MVP after dominating the Minnesota Timberwolves. Now, he he a little extra proof that he should’ve been the MVP..
ESPN likely went ahead and announced this as Doncic won’t be in attendance for the ESPYs tonight as he is on vacation, taking a rest after a year-long stretch of basketball with very few breaks between playing for Slovenia and the Mavericks. The ESPYs are f
an-voted.
