Luka Doncic is one of the best players in the NBA right now.
Despite being just 24 years old, many believe that Doncic has the talent to be the face of the league in the foreseeable future.
The European superstar put on a show against the Houston Rockets in a recent matchup.
During the game, Doncic was almost unstoppable, and even Dillon Brooks, who is known for his defensive prowess, wasn’t an equal match for him.
Speaking of Doncic, he effortlessly scored over Brooks and Mavericks legend Dirk Nowitzki urged the 24-year-old to talk trash, as revealed via a clip shared by Bally Sports Southwest on Twitter.
“Talk to him,” Nowitzki urged.

Nowitzki wasn’t present on the sidelines; instead, the Mavericks legend was present in the commentary box to lend his voice during the important game.
As revealed in the above-attached video, Nowitzki wanted to see the current superstar of the Mavericks indulge in verbal warfare.
A key reason behind it could be the fact that Brooks is known for trash-talking against superstar players.
But one of the best ways to ensure that a player like Brooks remains ineffective is never giving them a chance to open their mouth.
Doncic certainly ensured that after dropping 41 points, 9 rebounds, and 9 assists against the Rockets.
Following this performance, Doncic has now scored at least 30 points in last four out of his last five games.
Keeping that in mind, Doncic has certainly earned the right to talk back at his opponents.
