“That’s Mose Schrute”: Luka Doncic’s Hilarious Antics Before Christmas Day Matchup Leaves NBA World in Shambles

The Dallas Mavericks are ready to face the Phoenix Suns in their Christmas Day encounter. Luka Doncic and Co. are coming off a dominant blowout victory against the San Antonio Spurs in the last game. Luka scored 39 points, 12 rebounds, and 10 assists against the Spurs and will hope to continue his elite form against Kevin Durant and Co. Luka made sure to achieve his best form by getting his pre-game warmup early.

While many consider Doncic to be a slow-paced methodical player, Luka showcased his incredible speed during his hilarious pre-game antics, leaving the NBA World in shambles.

Luka Doncic’s pre-game antics leave fans in a frenzy

The Dallas Mavericks superstar Luka Doncic was in a happy mood ahead of his Christmas Day game against the Phoenix Suns. Luka had a hilarious pre-game moment as he ran through the tunnel at full speed, shouting, “I’m fast, I’m fast, I’m fast!” repeatedly. Even though Luka can dunk the ball every now and then, he is not known to be a very athletic or fast player. His offense is more dependent on his IQ and versatile skill set.

So, the 4-time All-Star’s actions left the NBA world in a frenzy. One fan even compared him with the famous sitcom character ‘Mose Schrute’ from ‘The Office.’ Luka’s running style in the video was very similar to the character as he flailed his arms around while sprinting.

Most fans loved Luka’s hilarious pre-game moment. Some fans even threw in comparisons between him and legends from other sports, including Lionel Messi and Tom Brady.

But one fan was not pleased with Luka’s antics and posted the iconic Chris Paul meme.

With his hilarious pre-game antics, how has Luka Doncic fared in the game?

Luka Doncic is single-handedly carrying the Dallas Mavericks

The Dallas Mavericks are 6th in the Western Conference with a 17-12 record. And most of it is because of the brilliance of Luka Doncic. The Slovenian sensation has kept the Mavericks’ season alive while their second superstar, Kyrie Irving, has been out due to injury. Kyrie injured his foot on December 8th after teammate Dwight Powell landed awkwardly on his leg during a game. Uncle Drew has missed 9 consecutive games due to a heel contusion. Meanwhile, Luka has been playing at an MVP level to keep the Mavericks firm in the 6th spot.

Luka Doncic and Co. are 4-4 since Kyrie got injured. Luka is averaging an insane 32.9 points, 8.6 rebounds, and 9.1 assists. He has single-handedly carried the Mavs in Kyrie’s absence. If Luka manages to sneak a win against Kevin Durant and Co. tonight, the Mavericks will have a legitimate chance to retain their spot in the playoffs when Kyrie Irving returns to action.

What do you make of the Mavs’ chances this season? Do you think Doncic has a legitimate claim to the MVP award?
