Instead of being on the other end of the plays they make for the Dallas Mavericks or Denver Nuggets, Davis appreciated playing next to them as Western Conference All-Stars.
"Luka and Jokic. Those guys are comedy," Davis said. "They're really funny. It's good to be on the other side of all the plays they make happen. ... Those two guys were very great."
Doncic shared a similar sentiment regarding a highlight of the event being the people he can see that are all gathered in one place. Notably, he enjoys seeing the other players in the locker room and interacting with them, including players he looked up to, like LeBron James and Kevin Durant, his close friend Nikola Jokic, and his former Mavs teammate Jalen Brunson.
"Every time I'm really excited to be here, all of the people you see, the players you share a locker room with, LeBron, Steph, KD, they've been doing this for a long time. So it's an unbelievable feeling," Doncic said.
Jokic had some comedic comments about Doncic after the game, describing the Slovenian superstar as being "really bad" for the event due to his lack of interest in playing hard.
"Luka's really bad for this game," Jokic said of Doncic. "He's worse than me. 100%."
Jokic, who inbounded the ball to Doncic before the full-court shot attempt, called Doncic taking the shot "crazy."
