NBA superstar Luka Doncic has delivered a historic triple-double, including a franchise-record 60 points, to steer Dallas to a crazy 126-121 win over New York.

The Mavericks trailed by nine points with 33 seconds left in regulation time before a Doncic-inspired rally.

The Slovenian guard hit an 11-foot jumper in the dying seconds after an intentionally missed free-throw, forcing the game to overtime.

His 60-point performance also included a career-high 21 rebounds and 10 assists, marking the first 60-20-10 game in NBA history.

It was Doncic’s seventh triple-double of the season.

Doncic shot 21 of 31 from the field and 16 of 22 from the line while bettering Dirk Nowitzki’s club record of 53 points from 2004.

“I’m tired as hell,” Doncic said after playing all but 12 seconds of the second half and overtime, and 49 minutes overall.

“I need a recovery beer.”

Mavericks coach Jason Kidd opened the plaudits.

“Everybody is still in shock,” Kidd said. “The history of the game is written by the players and it was written again tonight for a player – Luka  – doing something that’s never been done before.”

Spencer Dinwiddie (25 points) and Christian Wood (19) were also effective for Dallas, which improved to 19-16 with a fourth consecutive win.

Quentin Grimes scored a career-high 33 points and Julius Randle had 29 points and 18 rebounds for the Knicks.

The Mavericks led for less than a minute of regulation time but never trailed in the extra period.

Doncic put his team ahead for good with two free throws that took the score to 118-116 midway through overtime.

Los Angeles Clippers are now 21-15 and fourth in the West following their 124-113 triumph over the Raptors in Toronto, while their city rivals remain 13th despite a 129-110 success against the in-form Orlando.
