Secret Behind Luka Doncic?s Bizarre ?Horny Toad? Comments and Cowboy Look During Christmas Revealed

Dallas Mavericks superstar Luka Doncic is the ongoing hot topic of the league. The 23-year-old NBA star has been gaining massive attention with his record-breaking on-court performances recently. Drafted in 2018 as the third overall pick by the Mavs, the superstar point guard is one of the top prospects for the NBA MVP award this season. Doncic’s latest achievement is his staggering 60-21-10 triple-double performance in the win over the New York Knicks. While his on-court achievements are commendable, Doncic recently turned heads on Christmas Day, and the reason? His outfit and his bizarre ‘horny toad’ remarks.

Luka Doncic sure does know how to bring the spotlight on himself. Be it his jaw-dropping performances on the court or his interesting outfit choices. The Slovenian basketball superstar made the headlines when he showed up in a cowboy outfit prior to the Dallas Mavericks vs Los Angeles Lakers game on December 25, 2022. However, his outfit was not the only ‘new’ thing people got to witness.

Luka Doncic keeps his word

When Doncic arrived at the American Airlines Center for the Christmas Day game in a cowboy outfit, it was an unexpected surprise. Furthermore, his abrupt comment about ‘horny toad’ didn’t make sense as well. “I forgot my horny toad in the house,” Luka said during the post-game press conference which confused journalists and fans alike.

However, a recent video dropped by Dude Perfect explained it all. The 3x NBA All-Star appeared in an episode of Dude Perfect where Doncic and one of the hosts of the show, Tyler Toney, took part in a Texas-themed interview.

Given that Doncic has been a Texas resident for the past five years, Toney decided to ask him a series of questions to test his knowledge on the lone-star state. However, before they began, Jones handed Doncic a pair of cowboy boots and a cowboy hat to wear. Things turned interesting when Jones asked him if he would wear the hat during a pre-game warmup.

“Not in the warm-up but I will come to the game,” said Doncic. Immediately after he said that, a crew member from behind the camera suggested that he could wear them during the Christmas Day game and Doncic agreed to it.

After the series of questions began, Jones asked Doncic to identify a picture of a particular toad found in the diverse terrain of Texas. The 2019 NBA Rookie of the Year correctly guessed it as ‘Horny Toad’ and unwittingly found himself using the word during a post-game press conference to channel the true Texan in him. During the show, Toney explained to Luka that the animal is called ‘horny toad’ because you could put it to sleep by rubbing its belly.
