    Luka Doncic is just 25 years old, but the Mavericks guard has already stacked up a handful of signature playoff moments.

    His most recent came against the Timberwolves in Game 2 of the 2024 Western Conference Finals, when he put four-time Defensive Player of the Year Rudy Gobert on skates before burying a game-winning 3.

    The shot marked Doncic's second game-winning 3-pointer in his NBA Playoff career. He also hit a buzzer-beating 3 against the Clippers in Game 4 of the first round of the 2020 NBA Playoffs to tie the series at 2-2, though Dallas lost the series.

    Doncic's "Luka Magic" clutch heroics have become an expectation. But have they led the Mavericks to an NBA title since he started his career with the team in 2018?

    Luka Doncic accolades

    Even though Doncic has not been to the NBA Finals, he already has a full trophy.

    The 25-year-old has five All-Star and All-NBA appearances. He won Rookie of the Year in 2019 and won the scoring title this season.

    It's also worth noting that even though Doncic hasn't won an NBA title, he came to the United States with a long list of accolades from playing in Spain's Liga ACB and EuroLeague overseas.

    As a teenager, Doncic led Real Madrid to three Liga ACB championships (2015, 2016 and 2018) and one EuroLeague championship (2018). He was also named Liga ACB MVP and EuroLeague MVP as an 18-year-old during Real Madrid's 2018 championship runs.
