Watch: Luka Doncic's hilarious reaction to Shaq singing Slovenian music during practice
Before Game 3 of the Western Conference Semi-Finals between the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Dallas Mavericks, Luka Doncic was practicing on the court while Slovenian music played on the arena speakers. The Slovenian international was enjoying the music while hooping when a puzzled look took over his face.
Doncic raised his hand to the sight he was seeing: NBA icon Shaquille O'Neal sitting in the front row courtside, energetically singing along to the Slovenian song. The former Los Angeles Lakers star was vibing to the song, smiling, rocking his head and waving his left hand.

Shaq is known for his jovial nature, often lifting the atmosphere wherever he goes. Even on ESPN's Inside the NBA, he is a cherished presence that fans love to see.
After the shenanigans, Luka Doncic led the Dallas Mavericks to another victory (116-107) over the Minnesota Timberwolves with a team-high 33 points. The Mavs are now up by three games in this series and have to win only one more to book a ticket to the NBA Finals.
Shaquille O'Neal couldn't believe Luka Doncic's game-winner in Game 2
Game 2 of the Western Conference Finals witnessed one of the most competitive plays of the season. The Minnesota Timberwolves and the Dallas Mavericks gave it their all, but in the end, it was Luka Doncic who led his team to a narrow 108-109 victory with an incredible three-pointer, bringing his tally to a team-high 32 points.
Fans in the arena were amazed as Doncic made the shot over Defensive Player of the Year Rudy Gobert. Shaquille O'Neal was in a similar state as well.
A video of Shaq's reaction to the winning play has gone viral on social media, showing him shaking his head in disbelief:
Behind Shaq, Golden State Warriors star Draymond Green is also visible, dancing to the music playing after the successful shot. For a brief moment, Charles Barkley is also seen in the video, sharing the same expression of disbelief as his co-host on Inside the NBA.
