Watch: Luka Doncic hits sick behind-the-back move on Steph Curry

Javier Báez was nicknamed “El Mago”, which means “The Magician” for his highlight plays on the MLB baseball diamond. Dallas Mavericks superstar Luka Doncic may not be able to steal that nickname from Báez, especially so close to baseball season, but Doncic is every bit as magical as “El Mago” on the basketball court.
Case in point: Check out this incredible behind-the-back dribble drive Luka pulled off against the Golden State Warriors.
It’s one thing to use a pick to get penetration into the lane. It’s another thing altogether to cut back on the switching defender with a video-game like behind-the-back move to get all the way to the rim for a strong layup.
The last piece of the puzzle on this highlight? The defender Doncic put the move on was none other than Steph Curry.
This is a straight 10-out-of-10.
