During Luka Doncic’s morning shootaround interview with two reporters, I asked Doncic whether Caitlin Clark’s play reminds him of, well, him. “She’s more Stephen Curry than me. She’s the woman Steph Curry.” Doncic thought for a moment and added: “She can shoot it better than me.”

New ESPN story: Nikola Jokic has never seemed particularly excited to make basketball history.
But as the final ESPN MVP Straw Poll of the 2023-24 season shows, Jokic — despite stellar years from SGA, Luka and Giannis — is on the verge of doing just that.

Mavericks did not fair well in the non-Luka minutes at the end of the third quarter. The Warriors surged and went ahead 80-74. They had a 19-6 surge to finish the quarter, although Luka was on the floor for part of it. It was 12-3, Warriors, after Luka’s exit. – 11:51 PM

More on this storyline
That’s because Iowa sensation Caitlin Clark on the previous night poured in 41 points and had 12 assists and seven rebounds as the Hawkeyes’ ousted reigning champion LSU in the Elite Eight – with 12.3 million TV viewers tuned in, making it the most-watched women’s basketball game in history. Among those watching was Doncic, although he had to get rehab treatment and missed much of the second half when, in Doncic’s words, Clark “got it going.” Like most of us, the Dallas Mavericks star saw the game’s highlights afterward. “Amazing,” he said. “I saw the 3-pointers. She had, what 41? Triple-double? She sure let that ball fly.” -via Dallas Morning News / April 3, 2024
On what current NBA player he sees anyone breaking that 40,000 point plateau… Amare Stoudemire: Luka [Doncic] maybe. Other than that, no. Kevin Durant possibly… but other than that, no I don’t see it. I don’t see it bro. LeBron James is a SPECTACULAR human being first and foremost. Along with the God given talent that God blessed him with, you understand me? That is what’s remarkable about LeBron James. -via YouTube / April 3, 2024
