On Mavs Media Day, NBA reporter Rachel Nichols spoke with Doncic in a 1-on-1 interview for “Headliners with Rachel Nichols” on Showtime and Paramount+ about his future with the organization. He asked if he’d ever consider requesting a trade from the Mavs if he didn’t feel there was a strong outlook to win a title. “I’m not sure,” Doncic said. “I feel great here. They drafted me. I felt at home since Day 1, so I’m really happy where I’m at, and I think we made some great moves this offseason. But, yeah, I’m happy here.”

Luka said after he received the technical foul in the first quarter, he was told “that (he) can’t clap” as an explanation for why it was whistled.

– 7 made 3s for Naz Reid
– 17 rebounds for KAT (5 offensive)
– Ant led the team in +/- despite shooting 3/19
– NAW supported McDaniels with the Luka assignment and was super efficient on O (13 points, 5/6 from the field)
Wolves 119, Mavs 101 – 10:52 PM

The Wolves take their largest lead of the night, 94-84. Some nice contests by Anderson, Brown of Doncic and some timely buckets by Anderson as well.
Jaden McDaniels was back in the locker room, he’s back now on the bench. – 10:26 PM

Can Rudy be a weapon in the 4th?
Not a lot to “nevermind” against Dallas — it’s all Luka and then perimeter Js. So maybe has to be a weapon on O — opps for O boards, and maybe get some lobthreat goin. – 10:23 PM

Mavs start the game on a 17-2 run vs MIN, but T-Wolves rallied for a brief lead before a Luka layup right before the the half gave Mavs 60-59 lead. Doncic w/26. His 4th 20 pt 1st half in the last 5 games (18 vs LAL). Naz Reid w/19 to lead MIN. 2nd half soon @971TheFreak – 9:43 PM

Mavericks withstand a 10-0 Minnesota run after Rudy Gobert went out and hang on for a 60-59 lead at the break. Should be a good, entertaining second half. Luka with 26 points. Naz Reid with 19 for Minnesota. – 9:38 PM

They took a 3 away from Doncic at the end of quarter here, saying he was on the sideline as he shot it after review. The score is 30-26 Dallas as a result. Doncic had 16 in the quarter now, not 19. – 9:07 PM

Just a mundane 16-point first quarter for Luka Doncic. He had 19 points, but one of his three-pointers was rescinded as he was ruled to have been out of bounds. He has the Mavericks’ offense percolating and they lead 30-26 going into the second period. – 9:07 PM

Dallas is there victim of a bad technical foul for the second consecutive game. Hardaway gets screwed by the hanging in the rim call Tuesday, then Luka gets T’d up for some light complaining when he was very clearly fouled. – 9:01 PM

Luka has eight of the Mavericks’ points and they are up 13-2 less than three minutes into the game. Minnesota’s league-leading defense has yet to make an appearance. – 8:44 PM

At about this time last season, the Wolves played the Mavs in consecutive games. With the Wolves playing the Mavs tonight, and thinking about the McDaniels-Doncic matchup, I clipped all of McDaniels defensive possessions from those two games.

More on this storyline
Christopher Hine: He added that there’s not much talking between him and Doncic when he guards Luka, which McDaniels has done since he came into the league. “You can feel that competitive nature when we play, but there ain’t no talkin’ or that. Just respecting each other, I guess.” -via Twitter @ChristopherHine / December 14, 2023
Christopher Hine: Jaden McDaniels earlier today on guarding Luka Doncic: “I just try and stay in front of him. I don’t really care how many moves you do, I’m just going to stay right there and just be annoying. I just try to do that, for real. It’s hard, but I don’t know how I do it, for real.” -via Twitter @ChristopherHine / December 14, 2023
Luka Doncic on if he wants to win MVP: Of course, but first a Championship -via YouTube / December 13, 2023
