Luka Doncic made his debut for the Los Angeles Lakers last night, his first game since the shocking trade before the trade deadline that sent Anthony Davis to the Dallas Mavericks. It was also his first game since leaving on Christmas Day against the Minnesota Timberwolves, a period of about six weeks off for the Slovenian.

It took less than one game for the critics to be proven exactly right about just how badly the Dallas Mavericks screwed up their trade of superstar point guard Luka Doncic to the Los Angeles Lakers as part of a three-team deal that saw Dallas land 32-year-old star forward Anthony Davis.

Guard Luka Doncic made his highly anticipated debut with the Los Angeles Lakers on Monday night in a home game against the Utah Jazz. The stage was properly set for Doncic, with his former teammate and fellow Dallas Mavericks legend Dirk Nowitzki in attendance, and fans all across the stadium donning his jersey to cheer him on.
