Alright, let’s yak about this Luka Don-chich, or whatever his name is. Folks keep jabberin’ ’bout him, so I figured, why not? He’s one of them fellas playin’ that bouncy ball game, basket-somethin’, yeah, basketball. He’s with them Maverick fellas, been there a spell.
Now, they say this young’un’s played, lemme see, six, no, seven seasons with them Mavericks. Seven seasons! That’s a long time to be chasin’ a ball around, I tell ya. He’s been in, count ’em, 416 games, just in the regular season. That’s a heap of games, more games than I’ve seen chickens in my yard, and that’s sayin’ somethin’. And every game, he’s out there runnin’ and jumpin’, bless his heart.
- He gets near ’bout 28.7 points a game. Don’t rightly know how they count that, but it sounds like a whole bunch. Like countin’ all the stars in the sky, impossible!
- And he grabs the ball off them tall boards, 8.6 times a game. Ree-bounds, they call ’em. He’s good at snatchin’ that ball, like a hawk on a field mouse.
- Then he throws the ball to his buddies, 8.3 times a game. They call that assistin’, like helpin’ your neighbor churn butter, but with a ball.
They even picked him for them All-Star games, five times. Imagine that! Five times! Must be somethin’ special, this Luka fella. They say he’s a real standout player, means he’s good, real good, like the best tomatoes in the patch. Folks get all excited watchin’ him. They even got numbers for all this stuff, stats they call ’em. They keep track of everythin’, points, rebounds, and whatever else he does out there on that court.
This season, he’s been somethin’ else, even better than before, they say. Though he did hurt his wrist, poor boy. Had to sit out five games. But he come back strong, gettin’ even more points and them rebounds. 31.0 points and 10.5 rebounds after that wrist thing. That’s like gettin’ right back on the horse after it throws ya, tough kid, this Luka.
They got all sorts of stories ’bout him. Seems he had this hero fella, Spanoulis, and wanted to wear his number, number 7. But some other fella already had it, so he picked 77. Sweet, ain’t it? Like a young’un wearin’ his grandpa’s old hat. And then there’s this talk about red circles on his skin, folks wonderin’ what that was all about. Turns out it’s some kind of healin’ thing, cuppin’ they call it. Put them cups on your skin to make the hurt go away. Guess even these young fellas get aches and pains.
So, there ya have it. This Luka Don-chich fella, he’s a basketball player, plays for the Mavericks, plays a lot, scores a lot, grabs the ball a lot, and throws it to his buddies a lot. And folks think he’s mighty good at it. He’s got numbers, stats, and all sorts of stories swirling ’round him. Makes ya think, maybe I should start watchin’ this bouncy ball game after all.
Now, I don’t know all the fancy words these city folks use. But I reckon I got the gist of it. This Luka fella, he’s a big deal in that basketball world, and he’s got the numbers to prove it. And that’s about all I got to say about that.
