Dallas Mavericks guard Luka Doncic was up to his normal heroics on Wednesday night in the team's game against the Boston Celtics. Unfortunately, the rest of the team couldn't help him win the game. Across 40 minutes of playing time, the MVP candidate finished with 42 points, eight rebounds, and nine assists while shooting 17-for-28. This was the 19th 40-point game of his career and his fourth of this season alone. His high turnover totals can be tolerated when he's putting up video game numbers like this.

Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic became the 10th player in NBA history with at least 50 triple-doubles, racking up 33 points, 12 rebounds and 11 assists in Friday's blowout victory over Denver. He reached the milestone in his 278th career game and only Oscar Robertson has needed fewer games (111) to record 50 triple-doubles. Doncic's stat line also included one steal and two turnovers, and he shot 11-for-22 from the field and 9-for-11 at the foul line with a 2-for-7 record from downtown.

Dallas is completing a back-to-back set and Doncic is getting a night off after a busy 40-minute outing against the Clippers. This will the first game of the season he misses. Tim Hardaway Jr. looks likely to hop into the starting five with Doncic out, while Spencer Dinwiddie also gets a boost. Hardaway Jr. has been very inconsistent this season, but Dinwiddie should be a great option for fantasy managers. He's been enjoying his time playing alongside Doncic as well, averaging 20 points for the month with four rebounds and nearly six assists.

Luka also found time to pick up two steals and one block with two turnovers in 38 minutes. With 12 games played, Doncic has been able to post 30-plus points 10 times, and this looks like the start of a very special season. Orlando and Washington slowed him down a bit this week, but the Mavs superstar came back very strongly, and he should be ready to provide another juicy line Tuesday versus the Clippers.

Dallas Mavericks point guard Luka Doncic joined the legendary Wilt Chamberlain as the second player in the NBA to score 30-plus points in nine consecutive games to begin a season.

Doncic shot 5-for-9 from downtown and collected six rebounds and six assists with two steals, one block and five turnovers in 38 minutes. The Slovenian sensation is on an incredible tear and is averaging a league-high 36 points per game.

Chamberlain opened the 1962-63 campaign with 23 consecutive 30-point outings.

Doncic was 15-for-19 at the line and posted three turnovers in 40 minutes. Luka's shooting numbers had been solid prior to Saturday's action, so he should be able to bounce back quickly. He doesn't need to wait long for a chance to redeem himself either, with Dallas heading out again on Sunday against Orlando. The Magic have done pretty well defensively so far, sitting 11th in defensive efficiency, but keeping Doncic quiet will be a huge challenge for them.

Doncic finished the 2021-22 campaign by averaging 28.4 points, 9.1 rebounds, 8.7 assists, and 1.1 steals. His shooting from deep could use some work, and it would be nice if he stayed healthy for the majority of any given year. Still, despite Doncic's few downfalls, he has an excellent chance of finishing the season as the league's Most Valuable Player. He should also draw serious consideration to be the No. 1 option for managers during most fantasy drafts heading toward October.

Still, there's no reason he should be left out of any DFS lineup moving forward, despite his ever-increasing rostering cost.
