It was weird to see Luka Doncic in a n ° 77 Lakers jersey.
But once the match started, it was still only Luka Doncic and his magic of basketball on display.
Doncic made its Laker debut and finished with 14 points on the shooting of 5 out of 14, making its way in its new team, which had no trouble moving away from jazz for the 132-113 victory.
“Special, the way (the crowd) received me, it was incredible to see,” said so after the match. “I was a little nervous before – when I was the last time I was nervous before a match? – But once I walked on the field, it was fun.”
What was also special is that Dirk Nowitzki presents himself in Los Angeles to support his friend.
“For him to introduce himself, a great friend. Always his eyes towards him, a great mentor,” said Donic. “For him, introducing himself, flying from Dallas, was incredible and I really appreciate it.”
LeBron James led the Lakers overnight with 24 points, 8 assists and 7 rebounds.
