Kajri Irving ended up stealing the show Nikoli Jokić and Luka Dončić. A European duel between Dallas and Denver awaited, but the Australian-born playmaker ended up hitting the winning shot over the center from Sombor. And on an empty stomach!
The great playmaker announced in April 2021 that he had converted to Islam, and as Ramadan began on March 11, the month of fasting for Muslims, he actually did not eat or drink anything before this game.
“To play for 48 minutes without drinking anything and without any food in my stomach… That is nothing less than a miracle.“, now announced Kajri, who in 2021, when he announced that he had become a Muslim, said: “For me, when it comes to religion, it is important to be part of the Muslim community, to be committed to Islam, but also to be committed to all races, cultures and religions. That I have full understanding and respect for them.”

Irving finished this match with 24 points, 9 assists and 7 rebounds, but now the question arises whether his spectacular basket to win over Nikola Jokic was irregular.
