Luka Doncic, now with the Lakers, recorded a triple-double with 19 points, 15 rebounds, and 12 assists in a 107-99 victory over his former team, the Dallas Mavericks. This performance made him only the third player in NBA history to achieve a triple-double against every franchise. Despite the emotional challenge of facing his old team just three weeks after being traded, Doncic’s focus was on the game, not the celebration. He shot 6-for-17 from the field, while teammate LeBron James scored 27 points, 16 in the fourth quarter, to secure the win. The game was filled with mixed emotions for Doncic, who maintained friendships with his former teammates and faced the Mavericks’ management. The Lakers will meet the Mavericks again on April 9 in Dallas, where Doncic will confront different emotional challenges.
