Kevin Durant claims Luka Doncic was playing NBA 2K23 during New York Knicks victory

Brooklyn Nets superstar Kevin Durant was just one of the basketball fans left stunned by Luka Doncic’s monster performance against the New York Knicks.

Luka Doncic, one of the cover stars of NBA 2K23, has been in tremendous form. He is on track to break multiple records this season. His incredible performance led the Dallas Mavericks to an overtime win over the Knicks on Tuesday. Thanks to Doncic's heroics, the Knicks have now lost four straight games.

Doncic was the main reason why the Dallas Mavericks won the game. The Mavericks spent three quarters chasing the game and were down by nine points with 33.2 seconds left in regulation. Doncic sent the game to overtime by coralling a rebound and hitting a tough shot in the final seconds of the fourth quarter.

Luka Doncic finished the game with 60 points, 21 rebounds and 10 assists. He set a record for the most points scored in a triple-double in NBA history. Doncic shot an utterly impressive 67.7% on the night and had 16 defensive rebounds. He was easily the best player on the court. His numbers would have made even NBA 2K23 gamers proud.

Kevin Durant was left impressed and made a hilarious claim on Twitter.

That was a MyCareer type performance from Luka tonight. Some video game shit

Most of Durant's followers seemed to agree with his assessment of Doncic. The 23-year old Slovenian is the betting favorite to win the MVP award this season. Of course, where the Dallas Mavericks finish in the standings will also have a major impact on his MVP chances.

Gamers currently have the opportunity to snag pink diamond versions of both Luka Doncic and Kevin Durant in NBA 2K23 via the 'Tis the Season' pack. The pack also comes with a three-part challenge that gives gamers a free pack. However, the chances of snagging a high-rated player in one pack are very small.

With legends such as 'Galaxy Opal' Michael Jordan, 'pink diamond' LeBron James and Kobe Bryant, the pack is a must-open for most NBA 2K23 gamers. Especially if they have some VC (virtual currency) to spare.

Doncic is currently averaging a career-high 33.6 points, 8.8 assists and 8.7 rebounds in 32 games this season. The Mavericks are currently 7th in the Western Conference with a 19-16 record. They are hosting the Houston Rockets tonight at American Airlines Center. Tip-off is scheduled for 8:30pm/ET.
