So Doncic essentially needed to throw the ball off of the rim in a way that his teammates could feasibly rebound. For a missed free throw to be legally rebounded, it needs to hit the rim. As the Knicks learned on Tuesday, holding Doncic off for 47 minutes is no longer enough. Even after he makes the first free throw, with only 4.2 seconds left on the clock, the game is essentially over. He flies in off of Hardaway's miss, makes the putback, and draws the foul in the process. Doncic wins the tip but passes the ball to Hardaway, who misses a 3-pointer. However, the pass is close to enough to the sideline that Dinwiddie can use Doncic as an impromptu screener.

Luka Dončić put up a historic triple-double in the Dallas Mavericks' thrilling 126-121 overtime win over the New York Knicks on Tuesday.

“Just to be able to stay together and trust, Luka had a big part in that. Give the Knicks credit, they were making a lot of threes that we didn’t think were possible. I mean, it’s just incredible to be in those comparisons and just to be with those guys, at any stage. “But just his competitiveness to win is at a very high level – and you saw that displayed tonight. There’s a lot of things we’ve learned from our losses in close games like this.” As you can see, he’s picking up full-court, we had a big jump ball.

The Mavericks rallied to beat the Knicks in overtime as Doncic rewrote the N.B.A. record books with a 60-point triple-double.

It was the first 60-point game of the N.B.A. Basketball Reference gave the performance a “game score” of 56.3, the best in the league since Harden’s game and the Three of the four 50-20-10 games in N.B.A. At 23 and in just his fifth N.B.A. The Knicks led the game by 9 points with 42 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter, but Doncic helped lead a Mavericks comeback that forced overtime. It was the first 60-point game in Mavericks history, surpassing a 53-point game by Dirk Nowitzki in 2004. Doncic’s 60-21-10 line in the Mavericks’ 126-121 overtime victory against the Knicks in Dallas was the first in N.B.A. His teammates made 23 baskets in total, and Doncic assisted on 10 of them. season, surpassing Joel Embiid’s 59 for the Philadelphia 76ers in November. The other highest point totals with 20 rebounds and 10 assists all came more than 50 years ago: Wilt Chamberlain’s 53-32-14 in 1968, Elgin Baylor’s 52-25-10 in 1961 and Chamberlain’s 51-29-11 in 1963. No player since the 1960s had tallied 50 points, 20 rebounds and 10 assists in an N.B.A. On Tuesday night, Luka Doncic reached that total and kept right on going to 60 points.

The Mavericks superstar tied the record for the highest-scoring triple-double in NBA history.

When the Knicks were not aggressive about sending two at Luka—opting for a lot of drop coverage—Dončić obliged by ambling to his spots and hitting shots, while also bullying his way to the free-throw line a whopping 22 times.
