The Los Angeles Lakers achieved a dominant win against the Denver Nuggets, highlighted by Luka Dončić’s standout performance since joining the team from the Dallas Mavericks.
In his fourth game as a Laker, the Slovenian sensation showcased his skills, scoring, setting up teammates, and enjoying himself on the court, delivering a memorable display.
After the match, LeBron James expressed his delight, praising his new teammate’s efforts.
“I believe it was his fourth game with us, but that’s the Luka we’ve all come to know over the past seven years. Particularly when he gets that step-back shot going from the left side—he becomes pretty lethal. He had a huge game tonight,” James remarked.
He also noted their developing synergy on the court, underscoring Luka’s exceptional passing talent.
“I’m basically a natural-born wide receiver, and he’s a natural-born quarterback, so we mesh really well. I’ve been running up and down the floor and finding open lanes my entire life, while he’s been making great passes just as long. Finding a rhythm is easy with that kind of chemistry. It’s all about the eye contact and his ability to be the great quarterback that he is,” LeBron James concluded.
