DALLAS — Perhaps Luka Doncic felt extra flashy in the Mavericks’ “statement uniforms,” a sleek navy blue cut with black accents and white accessories the team debuted Saturday night against the Memphis Grizzlies.
Maybe he wanted to show out as head coach Jason Kidd and the entire support staff sported pairs of his Jordan Brand signature Luka 1s.
Or, more likely, Doncic might’ve just wanted to ease the sting of the Mavericks’ season-opening blown lead to the Phoenix Suns and put on a show for the American Airlines Center faithful who turned out to watch him against fellow young star Ja Morant.
