Perhaps no one has more closely followed Luka Doncic’s NBA trajectory than Orlando coach Jamahl Mosley, who as a Mavericks assistant was Doncic’s primary...
Doncic has scored 30 or more points in each of Dallas’ first six games, a feat not attained since Jordan in ‘86.
Any comparison to Jordan is flattering, but as the Mavericks prepare to host surprising Utah Wednesday night, fans should hope that Doncic’s season won’t be like that of Mike in 1986-87. In that sense, this is an enviable “problem” for Mavericks coach Jason Kidd: How to guide, not harness, full-gallop-Luka and create better offensive balance, for the good of the team. And for Doncic’s well-being.
Against Orlando, Dallas fell into a 10-point hole four minutes into the game. Mosley’s first-half strategy was clear: Single-cover Doncic and test the rest of the primarily spot-shooting Mavericks lineup to shake free for open looks. Kidd said the Mavericks had to make similar adjustments last season when Doncic’s improved conditioning kicked in a couple of weeks after his December bout with COVID-19.
