The Dallas Mavericks saw the stark consequences of their blockbuster trade in action on Tuesday as former franchise star Luka Doncic put up a triple-double in the Los Angeles Lakers’ 107–99 win at Crypto.com Arena.
Doncic has averaged 19.0 points across five games for the Lakers this year, a far cry from the 33.9 points he averaged during an MVP-caliber campaign for the Mavs just a season ago. Yet, the Slovenian star has slowly but surely been finding his footing alongside LeBron James in Los Angeles.
