“Maybe going to see Chuck, Kenny, Shaq, and those guys got him inspired last night. Maybe we should see them a little bit more often!”

I refuse to believe it is a coincidence that both Devin Booker and Luka Doncic have more than 60 points each, the same night, following the game Luka had an altercation with that fan in the Booker jersey.
