Luka Doncic saying he needed a 'recovery beer' after historic game became a funny meme
In case you missed it, Dallas Mavericks star Luck Doncic had one of the best games in NBA history Tuesday night when he went off for 60 points, 21 rebounds, and 10 assists in an overtime win at home over the New York Knicks.
It’s the first 60/20/10 triple double in NBA history, which is just insane. It also left Doncic completely exhausted, which is totally understandable.
Immediately following the game he did a TV interview on the court and he let the world know that he really needed a “recovery beer” to help him feel a little bit better after giving everything he had on the floor.
Luka Doncic had the first 60-point, 20-rebound triple-double in NBA history. Immediately after, here is what he said:
“I’m tired as hell. I need a recovery beer.”
That is instantly an all-time great quote from an all-time great player. #MFFL
