"Ruined my over 30 parlay" - NBA fans in shambles after Luka Doncic misses 30-point triple-double

Luka Doncic entered Monday's game against the Chicago Bulls on a six-game streak with a 30-point triple-double. He put up another triple-double in the 127-92 win but was three points shy of extending the streak to seven. NBA fans couldn't believe that he didn't go for it despite the opportunity.

Doncic has the NBA record for the longest 30-point and 35-point triple-double streaks, at six and five, respectively. He ended the game with 27 points, 12 rebounds and 14 assists. Dallas Mavericks coach Jason Kidd gave him until the first part of the fourth quarter to extend the record, but he failed.

When Kidd took him out halfway in the fourth quarter, Doncic was fine with it and didn't pout about prolonging his record. His triple-double streak is at seven, four short of Russell Westbrook's record set in 2019.

NBA fans on social media didn't know how to feel about Luka Doncic missing a 30-point triple-double. Some were angry that Doncic did not go over and subsequently destroyed their parlay bet, while others were confused about why he's not in the MVP conversation enough.

One fan wrote:

"Ruined my over 30 parlay."

One fan could not believe "Luka Magic" is efficient despite the number of shots he takes:

"Gone under the radar, but he's averaging the most 3-pt. attempts of his career with 10, and is shooting 38% from range. With the level of difficulty of the shots he takes, that's ridiculous."

Another fan is confused why Doncic is not the favorite to win the MVP:

"What does he have to do to get MVP? Seriously the guy is unstoppable yet isn't the favorite."

Ex-Mavs player blasts Luka Doncic

Is Luka Doncic a poor teammate?

Luka Doncic is gaining a reputation online as a poor teammate, mainly due to how he plays basketball. Former Dallas Mavericks player Chandler Parsons put himself in the shoes of Doncic's teammates and reckoned he'd be sick of doing the same thing regularly:

"I think he is an unbelievable talent," Parsons said on the 'Run It Back' podcast. He's literally a guard version of Jokic, where he can do anything, but as a teammate, it's a little exhausting watching the same s**t over and over again."

However, Parsons' take might not be popular among the Mavs fanbase, asa players, like Kyrie Irving, have acknowledged how great of a teammate Doncic is. Grant Williams though, who was traded at the deadline, might agree with the take due to how things ended in Dallas.
