The Dallas Mavericks are headed to their second Western Conference Final under Luka Dončić, mostly thanks to Dončić.

The Slovenian star led his team on a 17-point comeback to finish off the Oklahoma City Thunder in six games, winning 117-116 on Saturday against the Western Conference’s top seed. Dallas will face the winner of Game 7 between the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Denver Nuggets on Sunday.

Dončić finished the game with 29 points on 9-of-15 shooting, 10 rebounds and 10 assists, the seventh playoff triple-double of his career.
