On Wednesday night, the Dallas Mavericks hosted the Atlanta Hawks. At the end of the final buzzer, the Hawks managed to bag an eight-point victory – thereby extending their winning streak. This victory was led by Trae Young?s 18 points and Dejounte Murray?s 30 points. Like almost every game this season, Luka Doncic led the way for the Mavs with 30 points and 8 assists, but his efforts were in vain. With that said, Luka?s father Sasa Doncic sat on the sidelines for this game, and unbeknownst to him, he gave NBA fans a good laugh online.?

He posted a picture of Sasa Doncic in the Incredibles outfit and paired it with the caption ?Wait a minute?, leaving NBA fans in splits.?
