PHOENIX — Do not confuse this as a direct comparison. Luka Doncic trails Michael Jordan by six NBA championship rings along with many other honors and...

Doncic is obviously missing a ring , but there’s really only one other player in NBA history with the playoff scoring numbers that No. 77 has posted.

But on a list of of all-time greats and current stars that have played in at least 25 playoff games — one Doncic will not qualify for until next round or next year — the numbers begin to inform us as to just how other-worldly Luka’s scoring really is. Phoenix’s leading scorer, Devin Booker, who had a 70-point regular season game early in his career, sits at 26.7. Golden State’s Steph Curry, whose scoring range extends roughly to mid court, checks in at 26.5.

Luka exists on a different plane when it comes to scoring, but that is, in part, because many teams want him to shoot. Or at least they willingly allow it. Unlike most of the players on this list, Doncic is no stranger to 10-assist games. And, odd as it sounds, Phoenix is more concerned with his passing to the three-point line out of penetration than his ability to fill the basket with two-pointers.
