After months of anticipation, Luka Doncic made his Los Angeles Lakers debut, impressing despite the team’s struggles. In Phoenix, the Slovenian tallied 25 points, 7 rebounds, and 4 assists in 22 minutes, proving he’s already in top shape.
The Lakers, however, fell 113-104 to the Suns, who were missing several starters. With LeBron James sidelined, coach JJ Redick’s lineup featuring Marcus Smart, Jake LaRavia, and former Sun Deandre Ayton failed to keep pace after halftime.
It marks the third loss in four preseason games for L.A., raising concerns ahead of opening night. Doncic may be ready — but the Lakers still have work to do.
