The Dallas Mavericks are outperforming expectations as of now. They were expected to be better with the addition of Luka Doncic to their team, but they were not expected to be immediately competitive as well. Luka has not only elevated himself and his game, he has carried the Mavericks along as well. They are 11-10 right now, sitting in the 8th spot. Luka has made the players around him play better as well and you don't have to look further than Harrison Barnes to notice it.

He is one of those players who has gotten better at basketball after leaving the Golden State Warriors.
