Luka Doncic is amongst the biggest superstars in the NBA. The Serbian ace currently plies his trade for the Los Angeles Lakers and is not one to shy away from the spotlight. Ahead of a clash against former side Dallas Mavericks, the 26-year-old chose to bring out a rare Bugatti supercar to the Crypto.com Arena in Los Angeles.
Even before entering the court, Doncic turned the social media glare to his corner. The Lakers ace flexed an all black Bugatti W16 Mistral. The car costs a whopping $5 million. There only 99 of such hypercars in the world, making Doncic the owner of rare machinery.
Such is the hype around Luka Doncic's ride that even Snoop Dogg joined in on the fun. In the video, Snoop Dogg is seen sprinting towards the hypercar. Once he reaches it, he jokes, “I left my keys at home!”
He even called Doncic 'batman' giving the car's price and the striking black features. “You, Batman now. 2026 Batman. If you can fit in it. I know I can fit in it. You’re 6-8, I’m 6-4. I know I can sit up in that. When you’re on the road, let me get that,” Snoop told Luka Doncic when he saw the NBA star walking towards the car.
Doncic dropped a stunning performance after arriving in the hypercar. The 26-year-old scored 35 points in Lakers' 129-119 win at the Crypto.com Arena. The ex-Mavericks star posted 11 assists and 5 rebounds in his 40-minute stint on the court.
What is so special about Doncic's Bugatti?
Firstly, the fact that only 99 of them makes it a super rare commodity. It is the final Bugatti to be produced with the 1600 PS W16 Quad-Turbo. The manufacturer has since shifted to a V16 engine. The convertible is capable of reaching a top speed of 260 miles per hour.
