It feels safe to say that no team in the league has figured out how to defend Luka Doncic. Minnesota Timberwolves coach Chris Finch is going to give it his best shot in his team's upcoming first-round playoff series against the Los Angeles Lakers, albeit with a questionable game-plan tactic.
The Timberwolves will travel to Crypto.com Arena on Saturday to take on the Lakers, facing the dreaded two-headed monster of Doncic and LeBron James. Minnesota boasts a dangerous offense of its own that closed out the season with three straight wins to secure the No. 6 seed, but how the Timberwolves fare against the Lakers will likely depend on whether they can keep Doncic and James in check.
