Luka Doncic has never won an NBA Most Valuable Player Award throughout his career. But the Los Angeles Lakers superstar made a strong case for himself to win the award during the month of March.

He finished the month off with three consecutive 40-point games against the Indiana Pacers, Brooklyn Nets and Cleveland Cavaliers. Doncic totaled 600 points across the month of March, making him and NBA legend Michael Jordan the only two players in history to reach that mark in March.
Doncic and Jordan are two of the ten players in NBA history to score 600 points in any month, according to ESPN’s Dave McMenamin.
“I think Luka has had as good of a month as anybody that I can remember in the modern NBA, at least since I’ve been part of it,” Lakers head coach JJ Redick said, per ESPN.
Doncic’s dominance on the court helped the Lakers put up a 15-2 record in March. Los Angeles is now two games ahead of the Denver Nuggets for the No. 3 seed in the Western Conference.
Doncic Is At Risk of Suspension If He Receives Another Tech
The Lakers only have six regular season games left before the playoffs begin. Doncic will need to be cautious during these games to avoid receiving a second, one-game suspension.
Doncic missed the Lakers’ game against the Washington Wizards on Monday after receiving his 16th technical foul of the season in Friday’s game against the Nets. If Doncic receives another tech during the regular season, he will have to serve another one-game suspension.
