Luka Doncic smiling at Devin Booker became an instant meme during Mavericks’ Game 7 blowout
Booker #Booker
In advance of their Game 7, the Suns spent a lot of time trolling the Mavericks’ Luka Doncic. Phoenix’s arguably best player, Devin Booker, in particular, really poked the bear.
Hmm, it would appear that trolling of one of the NBA’s very best players was a mistake!
On Sunday, the Mavericks absolutely tore the Suns apart in a stunning 123-90 blowout. From the jump, it was never that close either — the Mavs led by 10 points after the first quarter and just kept stacking onto that margin without mercy.
As per usual, Dallas was led by Doncic, who chipped in a casual 35 points, 10 boards, and four assists. It seems the Mavs’ superstar was indeed paying attention to Booker’s chirping:
Matters got so bad for Phoenix, that folks were even digging up Doncic’s joyous smile at Booker during the Mavs’ previous win from Game 6 in Dallas.
Take this photoshop from TNT, who broadcasted Game 7:
Whatever you do, Devin: Do NOT look at him. It won’t end well. You’ll only get even more upset at your team’s massive Game 7 collapse.
Of course, NBA fans were delighted to see Doncic’s trolling smile at Booker resurface. They turned the funny “Luka Special” moment into an instant viral sensation at the Suns’ expense.
