What a game for the Lakers. Luka Doncic was fuming from the start of the game to the end. Not only was he a scorer but he put the Lakers in position to get up the floor and run. LA had 16 points off of transitional offense. Let's take it to the end of the third. The Lakers were up 20 and looked like they were in control of the game, but the Clippers went on a 14-4 run in the last two minutes to cut the Lakers' lead to 12.


Heading into the fourth, LA was shooting around 58% from the field. Now, if you have been watching the Lakers this season, they have had trouble closing games out Once again they were in a dog fight with holding Kawhi Leonard and crew down. Leonard was the "Terminator"

as he was very active on both sides of the floor. Luka went to work and put the team on his back late in the game with clutch shooting to escape with the 108-102 victory. Luka finished with 29 points, while Leonard finished with 33
