Luka Doncic just broke a Michael Jordan record you won't believe

Luka Doncic has surpassed Michael Jordan's incredible feat.

The Los Angeles Lakers superstar has become the first player since Jordan to score more than 300 points through his first eight games of an NBA season.

Doncic has accumulated 308 points, moving past Jordan's previous mark of 303 points.

Jordan set that mark during the opening eight games of the 1988-89 campaign.

The achievement came during Wednesday's 116-103 victory over the Sacramento Kings.

That game was also Doncic's 100th appearance in a Lakers uniform.

He celebrated the occasion with 40 points, nine rebounds and seven assists.

Doncic now has 3,240 points through his first 100 games with Los Angeles.

That is the third-most by any player through their first 100 games with a single franchise.

Only Wilt Chamberlain has scored more through his first 100 games with a team.

Chamberlain did it with both the Golden State Warriors and the Philadelphia 76ers.

Doncic also made NBA history by becoming the first player ever to record six consecutive games with at least 35 points, five rebounds and five assists.

His scoring numbers through the opening eight games have been particularly impressive.

He is averaging 38.5 points per game.

That figure ranks among the greatest starts to a season in NBA history.

Only Chamberlain has averaged more points through his first eight games of a campaign.

Chamberlain averaged 52.3 in 1962, 50.0 in 1961 and 39.6 in 1959.

Doncic's current average also moves him ahead of Jordan.

Jordan averaged 38.4 points through his first eight games in 1986.

With 308 points already on the board, Doncic has surpassed one of Jordan's most impressive early-season records.

He continues to produce at an extraordinary level.

If he maintains this scoring pace, the Lakers superstar could be on course for one of the highest-scoring seasons in NBA history.

Doncic has established himself as one of the league's most dominant offensive players since arriving in Los Angeles.

The trade that brought him from the Dallas Mavericks to the Lakers reshaped the NBA landscape.

His ability to score from all three levels — at the rim, in the mid-range and from beyond the arc — makes him nearly impossible to guard.

Defenses have thrown everything at him: double teams, traps, switching schemes.

None of it has slowed him down through the first two weeks of the season.

The record he broke had stood for nearly four decades.

Jordan's 1988-89 season is widely regarded as one of the greatest individual campaigns in NBA history.

Jordan averaged 32.5 points, 8.0 rebounds and 8.0 assists that year.

He also won the league's Most Valuable Player award that season.

Doncic is now matching — and in some cases exceeding — those historic numbers.

The Lakers have benefited greatly from his hot start.

Los Angeles has opened the season with a strong record, positioning itself as a contender in the Western Conference.

Doncic's partnership with LeBron James has continued to develop.

The two superstars have found a rhythm that makes the Lakers dangerous on any given night.

Steve Kerr, the Golden State Warriors coach who played alongside Jordan with the Chicago Bulls, recently compared another superstar to his former teammate.

Kerr said coaching Stephen Curry reminds him of playing with Jordan.

"Honestly, it really does remind me of what it was like to play with Michael Jordan back in the day," Kerr said in a quote obtained by the Sacramento Bee.

"Every single night you just are amazed, and you marvel at what he's capable of doing no matter what the defense does, but also just the longevity of it."

Kerr added: "To see night after night, defenses doing everything possible to slow Steph down like they did with Michael, and yet the love for the game, the competitiveness, the passion, the desire to put on a show for the fans — there are such great comparisons to be made there."

Curry has also gotten off to a phenomenal start to the season.

Through six games, he is averaging 30 points per game, 4.5 assists and 4.2 rebounds.

He is shooting 42.9% from three-point range and 46.8% from the field in 28 minutes of play.

Curry had a 44-point, 8-rebound, 6-assist outing against the Minnesota Timberwolves.

He knocked down six three-pointers in that game.

He followed that up in the NBA Cup opener against the Lakers with 31 points and six assists.

He also had four rebounds, one block and one steal while knocking down eight three-pointers.

But Doncic's start has been even more explosive from a scoring standpoint.

The Slovenian superstar has been on a mission since the season tipped off.

His 38.5 points per game leads the league by a significant margin.
