Mavericks’ Luka Doncic pulls off a stunning 4-point play with teammate Josh Green against 76ers
Luka Doncic of the Dallas Mavericks and his teammate Josh Green shocked everyone with a four-point play against the Philadelphia 76ers last Monday. The game was a nail-biter with both teams giving it their all, but it was Doncic’s heroics that sealed the deal for the Mavericks. Here’s a breakdown of the epic play:
The Game
The Dallas Mavericks visited the Philadelphia 76ers on April 12th, 2021. The game was a back-and-forth affair with both teams trading leads. The 76ers held a 95-94 lead with less than three minutes left in the game when Luka Doncic stepped up to the plate.
The Play
With the clock winding down, Doncic took the ball and made a move to his right, driving to the basket. As he went up for the layup, he was fouled by Philadelphia’s Ben Simmons with just under 2 minutes left. However, instead of just earning two free throws, Doncic managed to sink the shot and draw another foul from Tobias Harris. That’s when Josh Green came into the picture.
As Doncic stepped up to shoot his free throw, Green positioned himself under the basket, hoping for a rebound. However, Doncic had other plans. He launched his free-throw shot high into the air, intentionally missing it. The ball hit the rim and bounced high into the air as Green leaped up and snatched it with both hands, then powered it up for a dunk right in Harris’s face. Green’s dunk brought the house down, giving the Mavericks a 99-95 lead with just over a minute to go in the game.
The Aftermath
The 76ers got a three-point play from Joel Embiid to cut the Mavericks’ lead to just one point with under a minute left. But then it was Doncic’s turn again. This time, he hit a tough three-point shot from the top of the key with less than 10 seconds left, securing the 76ers defeat by a final score of 113-95.
The Reaction
