Luka Doncic might have broken several NBA records and has set a few new ones of his own over the last few games. But today, we also discovered his fear. Yes, the man may dismantle entire NBA teams for fun but he is a human just like the rest of us.

And we got to see it for the first time on a YouTube video! Yes, Luka has a fear, which we frankly are not surprised by.
Dude Perfect is a youtube channel run by 5 friends who have accumulated 58.5 million subscribers, which makes them one of the largest social media channels in the world. In a segment with the Dallas Mavericks, they pulled out a picture of snakes, and Luka was not happy.
Dude Perfect brings out snakes and Luka Doncic loses his mind
We don’t see Luka overreact often. He rarely displays a wide range of emotions and they are not polarized, to say the least. But when he saw the snakes, he was freaked out!
It gets worse when he gets to see a box full of snakes and he realizes that there are actual snakes inside. Nightmare fuel. Or is Luka deadly afraid of them? Does he have ophidiophobia?
He is asked to close the lid on a box with a venomous snake, while the other two are not. But none of that matters as the box is opened and Luka frighteningly runs away. He even refuses to come back till they take the box away.
Rumors of ophidiophobia are most likely true. If we are afraid of snakes and someone would pull a stunt like this, we wouldn’t like it either. You can watch the entire clip here:
You can also see some bloopers in the video below and it looks like Luka Doncic doesn’t do trick shots. Probably because he is too good at it.

Luka Became The First in NBA History to pull off 250-50-50
Luka just in the last 5 games has been on a tear. He recorded the first ever 60-20-10 game, a stat line we probably think we wouldn’t be able to do in a video game, no less in real life.
And then to end the year, he put up 51 against the San Antonio Spurs. The performance made him the first player ever to record more than 250 points, 5o rebounds, and 50 assists in 5 games.
Luka is the firm favorite for the MVP award this season and despite a rigorous open to the NBA season, the Mavs sit in 4th, just 3 games behind the no.1 seed.
He may be deathly scared of snakes but he definitely isn’t scared of humbling your team.
