Despite Luka Don?i?’s Heroics, MLB Icon Alex Rodriguez Couldn’t Stop Himself From Dozing During a High-Stakes NBA Game in 2022

Dallas Mavericks star Luka Don?i? made history as he took the Mavs to yet another win. The Mavericks clashed against the New York Knicks at the Mavericks’ home arena. What looked like a complete loss for the Mavericks got turned around by twenty-three-year-old Luka Don?i?. He scored a historic triple-double and with it, became the first one to do so. But it was not the first time he steamrolled and took the win from the other team’s hands.

Earlier this year, Don?i? showed his heroics in one of the games. But the interesting thing that took place was that Yankees icon Alex Rodriguez was present there watching the game. And despite the heroics shown, Rodriguez couldn’t have helped himself from dozing off during the game.

What did Luka Don?i? do that could not keep Alex Rodriguez awake?

The Dallas Mavericks were going against the Phoenix Suns in the semi-final series of the Western Conference. It was game 7 of the series, and the first few games of the series were not so good for the Mavericks. In the first half of the game, the Mavs were up by 30 points.

It was the time when A-Rod got clicked, keeping his eyes shut. That probably was not a good couple of seconds for the former Yankee as the moment went viral on social media.

People picked up on the fact that A-Rod got caught taking a nap around sitting beside someone special in his life. The former Yankee had attended the game with his then-rumored girlfriend Kathryne Padgett. Talking about the game, it ended with the Mavericks scoring 123, with the Suns scoring only 90.

Who did Alex Rodriguez see the game with?

A-Rod, sitting beside him, was his first girlfriend of his after his infamous breakup with megastar Jennifer Lopez. He was seated beside the fitness enthusiast Kathryne Padgett.
