"The history of the game is written by the players and it was written again tonight for a player — Luka — doing something that’s never been done before.” Mavericks owner Mark Cuban said he'd never see another night like it, and teammate Christian Wood, whose three-pointer sparked the rally from nine points down in the final 30 seconds of regulation, said he was sending a “GOAT” to Doncic's farm in his native Slovenia.

60-21-10 triple-double stat line for Mavs' Luka Doncic goes viral (Corvallis Gazette Times)

Luka Doncic's unreal stat line on his latest triple-double went viral after the Dallas superstar scored 60 points and had 21 rebounds and 10 assists.

There’s also a slew of new or rebranded ones announced Tuesday -- Hakeem Olajuwon (defensive player of the year), John Havlicek (sixth man), Wilt Chamberlain (rookie), and George Mikan (most improved). No, this is not a conflict for Jordan even though he owns the Charlotte Hornets. A new trophy this year is the Clutch Player of the Year, named for “Mr. "Everybody is still in shock," coach Jason Kidd said after the game. It doesn’t seem right that David Stern — the league’s commissioner for 30 years, Silver’s predecessor and mentor and one of the people who basically helped saved the league from financial peril in the 1980’s — doesn’t have a trophy bearing his name. Russell died earlier this year.
