Luka Doncic clearly hasn’t been in peak physical condition for the 2024 NBA Playoffs. The Dallas Mavericks star is playing through a knee sprain that he admitted would have sidelined him if it was the regular season. Instead, Doncic is out there giving the Mavs all he has, even if he hasn’t been nearly as efficient offensively.
On Thursday, Doncic put in one of his better performances of the playoffs and got plenty of help from his teammates. The Mavs beat the Thunder, 119-110, in Game 2 of their second round matchup to even the series at 1-1.
Doncic finished with 29 points, 10 rebounds, and seven assists while making 5-of-8 shots from three-point range. P.J. Washington (29 points and 11 rebounds) and Tim Hardaway Jr. (17 points) were excellent in their roles, and the Mavs did their job by stealing one on the road as the series now moves to Dallas.
Doncic had plenty of good things to talk about after the game. Just as he started detailing the Mavs’ success for reporters, he was rudely interrupted by the sound of a woman moaning. Doncic looked stunned at first, and then everyone started laughing. Watch the clip here:

It sure seems like someone in the room was watching porn on their phone, and the video started playing when they brought up the tab by mistake. Doncic looked around in horror/amazement/intrigue for a few seconds before gathering himself to answer the question. Everyone had a good laugh out of it ... aside from the horrified person whose dirty video was played directly into the mic.
There’s a quick turnaround for this series with Game 3 on Saturday afternoon. Everyone avoid the X-rated content for that one.
