Luka Doncic put the Suns’ Cam Johnson in a blender, and NBA fans were mesmerized

At only 23-years-old, Luka Doncic is already one of the best players in the NBA. The Mavericks superstar makes a habit of putting on a show and humiliating defenders simultaneously on a nightly basis.
On Wednesday night, Dallas’s Game 2 matchup against the Suns (-6 favorites) was no different. With the Mavericks looking to even the series up at one game apiece, they needed their cornerstone in Doncic to make some magic happen.
And boy did he ever deliver the goods.
With the Suns out to an early 26-18 first-quarter lead, Doncic decided to try and spark his teammates with a slick spin cycle move — at the unfortunate expense of Phoenix’s Cam Johnson.
Wow. I honestly lost count of how many times Doncic changes direction. He put Johnson on skates and showed him no mercy.
NBA fans were similarly in awe over the skillful dribble display over social media.
Whether this turns into an eventual series-tying victory for the Mavericks remains to be seen. But it’s abundantly clear that Doncic, as usual, did his part for Dallas.
