Dallas Mavericks star Luka Doncic is making the most of his free time while quarantined inside the Disney World bubble. The Mavs star's current hobby of choice involves trolling his own followers on Instagram.
The Mavs guard recently posted a poolside photo via his Instagram stories and tagged the location as the French Polynesian paradise island of Tahiti:

To be fair to Doncic, any follower who fell for this joke deserves to be trolled. For starters, most fans already know that Doncic, much like every other player whose team will take part in the season restart, have already been quarantined inside the Diseny World bubble for quite some time now. Secondly, not that I've been to Tahiti, but this certainly looks more like a Florida resort pool as opposed to one in Tahiti. I'm also not sure they serve takeout food in boxes in the many exclusive and high-end resorts over there.
Doncic has been tremendous for the Mavs in his second season in the league. The reigning Rookie of the Year winner has averaged 28.7 points (on 46.1 percent shooting), 9.3 rebounds, 8.7 assists, and 1.1 steals, while also connecting on 2.9 triples per contest — all of which are career-high marks for the 21-year-old.
The Mavs currently hold a 40-27 record, and are placed at the seventh spot in the Western Conference. They may be seven and a half games ahead of the eight-seeded Memphis Grizzlies at this point, but technically speaking, they have yet to officially secure their spot in the postseason. Doncic will play a crucial role moving forward, as he hopes to lead his team to an extended run in the playoffs this term.
