“Luka Doncic really had a historic month of February”: The Mavs MVP becomes the only player to average 30/10/8 on 40 3P% in a month since the three-point era

Luka Doncic put up 34.7 points, 10.3 rebounds, and 8.8 assists on 41.2 3P% in February making him the only player to average those numbers in a month since 1980.

The Dallas Mavericks are having a .603 winning record this season. With an impressive 38-25 record, Jason Kidd’s boys are placed 5^th in the West and are merely 2 games behind the 4^th seeded Utah Jazz team. Like the past few seasons, this year too, Luka Doncic has been doing a remarkable job in leading this pack.

Averaging 25.6/10.1/9.5 in the month of January, the Slovenian led the Mavs to an 11-4 record. The recently turned 23-year-old elevated his game to a whole different level in the month of February, putting up 34.7 points, 10.3 rebounds, and 8.8 assists on 41.2 3P% in the 10 games.

Not only did Doncic win the Western Conference Player of the Month honors, but he also became the only player since 1980 to average such stats.
