Luka Doncic and the Dallas Mavericks were having fun on Sunday as they blew past the Portland Trail Blazers. Doncic, who led his team to a 132-92 win over the Blazers, got hilariously interrupted by the imposing presence of Boban Marjanovic. Yes, all 7'4″ of him.
Marjanovic decided that he wanted in on Luka's post-game interview as he, along with one of the Mavs' trainers, videobombed Doncic as he was being asked about his incredible performance against the Blazers.

It's hard not to have fun with a guy like Boban in your squad. And, it's also hard not to smile after you blowout a home squad by 40 points.
Aside from the defense he got in his post-game presser, Doncic was virtually unguardable inside the floor. Luka dropped 37 points for his Mavs in just 30 minutes of action against the Blazers. He was also incredibly accurate on Sunday, knocking down 13 of his 19 shots including 8-9 from deep. No wonder he was rather unbothered with Bobi stealing the spotlight after the game.
Doncic continues to roll as the Mavs' floor general in just his third season in the NBA. He's been able to keep himself in the MVP race for the second straight season with insane averages of 28.8 points per game, 8.4 rebounds, and 9.3 assists per game, his best passing rate since entering the league.
With the win, the Mavs continue to climb the Western Conference standings and are holding on to the eighth spot with the Golden State Warriors and the Memphis Grizzlies breathing down their necks. Doncic might need more than on-camera help from Boban and the rest of his teammates if they want to return to the playoffs this season.
