The Los Angeles Lakers took down their crosstown rivals on Sunday night, defeating the Clippers, 108-102. Luka Doncic led the way for the purple and gold with 29 points but gave every Lakers fan in Crypto.com Arena a heart attack when he hobbled off the floor to the locker room late in the first quarter.

He was, of course, fine. Doncic returned to the bench early in the second and got back on the court shortly thereafter to help drive the Lakers to a win. Afterwards he spoke to reporters about what happened and revealed he was struggling with a right leg injury after knocking knees for the third straight game.
