Doncic’s first game as a Laker, a rout of Utah, suggests some intriguing possibilities about a future with two of the best players in the world on the same team.

In Doncic’s first game with Los Angeles, the star pair flashed immediate chemistry that showed how their unexpected partnership can work.

Welcome to the Luka Era in Los Angeles, which officially kicked off with a 132–113 win over the cellar-dwelling Jazz. Doncic’s final stat line: 14 points in 24 minutes. He collected five rebounds and four assists. Not bad for a player out since Christmas.
