The 2022-23 NBA season was a mess for the Dallas Mavericks. Last year, they cruised to 52 games and made a Western Conference Finals appearance. Contrast that with 38 wins this season and no playoff appearance, and it is easy to under why fans are so frustrated.

While there is plenty of blame to go around, Mavericks guard Luka Doncic probably deserves the least amount of criticism. Doncic averaged over 32 points, eight rebounds, and eight assists per game.

Even better for sneakerheads, Doncic enjoyed an incredible launch of his first signature shoe with Jordan Brand - the Jordan Luka 1. Doncic brought the heat this season, and below are the top ten sneakers the perennial All-Star wore on the hardwood.
