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.

After a blockbuster trade that shocked the world earlier this month, Luka Doncic finally made his Los Angeles Lakers debut on Monday night in front of the home crowd at Crypto.com Arena and it’s a game Puka Nacua was not going to miss.
