It was weird to see Luka Doncic in purple and gold in his Lakers debut, so let’s see how the NBA internet is reacting.
You could see the LeBron x Luka connection almost straight away, which is definitely a sign of exciting thing to come.
Doncic recorded:
-14 Points-5 Rebounds-4 Assists-5/14 FGM-1/7 3PM-24 Minutes
Taking it away from Luka just a moment, after the failed trade for Mark Williams, Jaxson Hayes stepped up in a big way for the Lakers. He was feeding off Doncic and LeBron and finished the night with 12 PTS, 2 REB, 2 AST, 3 STL, and 6-6 FG in 23 minutes.
The great man Dirk Nowitzki was even in attendance, which is a huge deal considering he really only goes to Dallas games.
One fan said on X, “Dirk attending Luka’s debut in LA (especially while the Mavs play a home game) is about as loud of a statement without words that you can make from him.”
The best reactions are below:
I will always be a Mav for life, but had to come support my guy 77 @luka7doncic in the first game of his new chapter!

Two possessions in, I can already tell, playing with Luka will give Bron another source of energy!

The Mavs lost Luka, the fans, and Dirk in a one week. Brutal.

Besides Dirk, other stars like Dirk, Floyd Mayweather Jr., Adele, Rich Paul, & Will Ferrell were all in the house for Luka’s Laker debut.
With the win today, that is six straight W’s for the Lakers.
