Luka Doncic led the Los Angeles Lakers to a huge win on Saturday night, scoring 32 points and recording 10 rebounds to beat the Denver Nuggets, 123-100. Late Februrary wins rarely mean much in the NBA but this felt different for the Lakers.

Los Angeles Lakers star Luka Doncic appeared in his fourth game on Saturday since being traded from the Dallas Mavericks. Facing a Denver Nuggets team that entered the contest having won nine-straight games, Doncic and the Lakers were able to hand their Western Conference rivals a loss.
