The Los Angeles Lakers provided a glimpse of what the LeBron James-Luka Doncic pairing is capable of looking like as they dismantled the Denver Nuggets on Saturday night. Doncic exploded for 32 points while James added 25 and each player filled up the stat sheet to notch a road statement win against a team many believe will prevent the Lakers from advancing deep into the Western Conference bracket.

Doncic scores 32 in his best game since the trade, James adds 25 as the Lakers swarm Nikola Jokic on defense in a 123-100 win, their first at Ball Arena since April 2022.

Luka Doncic had his best game in a Lakers uniform Saturday night in Denver when he led Los Angeles to a 123-100 win over the Nuggets who had won nine games in a row
