With the third pick in the 2018 NBA Draft, acquired via trade, the Dallas Mavericks selected Luka Doncic. I know you already knew that, I just wanted to type it to remind us all that it really happened.
There were so many celebratory tweets we had trouble limiting it so there are a whole bunch here. From sarcastic Woj dropping the picks to Mavs fans reaction, the tweets were off the chain. Please enjoy our favorites below.
Best tweet of the night please do not @ us.

Shams might have led Woj into the sarcastic pick predicting by tweeting out the first two picks.
NBA: no more leaking picks

Woj’s adjective selection was spot on all night.

Poor Greg. Remember to check on your friends who are Kings fans. Life is tough sometimes.

Luka is going to torment the Rockets for years to come. We hope they’re ready for it.
Looking forward to rooting against Luka Doncic for years.

Rudy Gobert knows what’s up.
Great move by the Mavs, people don't realize how good this kid is.

Thank you Hawks!
Thank you & you’re welcome.

Atlanta might not feel as good about this trade when Luka Doncic is running rampant for the next many many years.

We agree with him on this.
Giving Rick Carlisle Luka Doncic is one of those “You will rue the day” moments.

Luka has a very good dog. This is an important update!
No initial evidence that #Hawks (#Mavs?) draft pick Luka Doncic owns a cat or likes cats. BUT he loves his dog back home, Nody. #NBADraft pic.twitter.com/2MjG9ogBKy

That’s all the tweets from the draft! Not really there were a whole bunch more but it’d be rude to put the entire timeline in one post, so this is it.
Remember all the best tweets come from @mavsmoneyball, so follow us for the best tweets on the internet, and long live Luka.
