The Slovenian cannot be stopped against the Suns. Meanwhile, LeBron James is missing.
Basketball star Luka Doncic led his Los Angeles Lakers back to the road to success with a convincing performance. The 26-year-old Slovenian was once again the best thrower of the game in the 107: 96 away win against the Phoenix Suns. Doncic came to 33 points, also posted eleven rebounds and eight assists. Through the victory, the head coach JJ Redick’s head coach ended a series of defeat. The Lakers had all lost the four NBA games before.
Meanwhile, Doncic’s teammate and superstar LeBron James were missing against the Boston Celtics after his groin injury last week. The 40-year-old will probably come back in a week at the earliest, different media had reported over a downtime of two weeks.
The Lakers are currently in fifth place in the Western Conference in the play-off ranks. So far, they have won 41 games this season and lost 25.
