LeBron on his connection with Doncic, "I'm a natural-born wide receiver and he's a natural-born quarterback, so it fits perfectly."

Luka Doncic put up his most complete game with the Lakers so far, finishing with 32 points, 10 rebounds and seven assists in a 123-100 win over the Nuggets.

Winners of 13 of their last 14 against the Lakers and eight consecutive head-to-head matchups at home, the Nuggets (37-20) were taken out of their comfort zone by a new-look Los Angeles roster. Anthony Davis was the player cashed in for Doncic, but somehow it was the Lakers’ defense that affected the hosts most. Denver shot 40% from the floor.
