The Lakers took down the Warriors on Wednesday night, 127-105, and Luka Dončić starred—which is no surprise. The Slovenian superstar enters this season with MVP expectations in Los Angeles and kicked off the campaign with a strong night, scoring 28 points to go with eight rebounds and seven assists. He put his stamp on the contest with usual flair, regularly threading fancy passes to new teammate Walker Kessler in pick-and-roll action and draining a half-court buzzer-beater to send the Lakers into the locker room with a 14-point lead.
Dončić also engaged in some delightful on-court antics with Golden State rookie Yaxel Lendeborg that drove the Dubs wild and led to a heated series of postgame quotes.
