Finishing with 32 points, 10 rebounds, and seven assists, the former Maverick demonstrated to the world exactly what Dallas traded away, especially in the wake of Davis' long-term injury. Doncic also recorded four steals – as embattled Mavericks GM Nico Harrison said of the trade, "defense wins championships."

LeBron James added 25 points, Austin Reaves scored 23 and Rui Hachimura had 21 when he left holding his left side with 10 minutes remaining — the Lakers didn’t miss him, going on a 12-2 run to stretch their lead to 19.
