Luka Magic lights up Utah in a win

Luka Doncic had 45 points, 11 boards, and 14 dishes in a 143-135 win over the Jazz.

Last night's victory over the Jazz was not a pretty sight at first. The Lakers had to dig themselves out of a hole early on. It seemed like LA was playing on fumes and looked tired. Shots were not going in, and they were getting beat on the defensive side of the ball. LA decided to put Luka Doncic beast mode and active his attack. I do not know what was said in the huddle midway in the second quarter, but Luka played like he had a mission.

Luka carried the Lakers on his back as he got to his spots on the floor and started hitting up. Other players like LeBron James and Marcus Smart joined the party in the second half and combined for 55 points. LA went on a 41-29 quarter in the fourth to take the win and walk away feeling happy.

"I think, honestly, I could do so much more," Doncic said after totaling 45 points, 14 assists, 11 rebounds, 5 steals and only 1 turnover. "But I think that one turnover is the best stat-wise on this stat sheet. We had seven turnovers, which is impressive for us and we won the game."
