Is it revenge time for Luka Dončić as the Dallas Mavericks head to LA to take on the Lakers?
The Los Angeles Lakers have been on a rollercoaster ride this season, but they finally seem to be trending in the right direction. They’ve won three games in a row, and Lebron James is playing some of his best basketball. Meanwhile, the Dallas Mavericks have been one of the most inconsistent teams in the league. They’re coming off two devastating losses to the Brooklyn Nets and the Sacramento Kings.
This is where Luka Dončić comes in. The Mavericks’ star has been on a mission all season, and it’s time for him to lead his team to a big win. Taking on the Lakers in Los Angeles is the perfect opportunity for him to do just that. Dončić has been phenomenal this season, averaging 33.0 points, 8.7 rebounds, and 8.9 assists per game. He’s been the driving force of the Mavericks’ offense, and he’ll need to be at his best againt the Lakers.
The Lakers have been able to rely on Anthony Davis and Lebron James to carry them this season, and they’ll need both of them to be at their best against Dončić and the Mavericks. In their previous match up, Dončić went off for 38 points, nine rebounds, and nine assists. The Lakers will need to find a way to slow him down if they want to win.
The Lakers will also need to step up their three-point shooting, as they’ve been struggling with that in their previous games. The Mavericks are a talented team, and they have the ability to light it up from deep. The Lakers will need to make sure they’re closing out on shooters and making life difficult for them beyond the arch.
This game has all the makings of a revenge game for Luka Dončić and the Dallas Mavericks. They’ve struggled to find consistency, but with a talented roster, they shouldn’t be pushed around by the Lakers. It would be a huge win for them, and it would set them up for a strong finish to the season.
