Top Luka Doncic News

  • Lakers' Deandre Ayton: Shines with double-double

    Ayton contributed 19 points (8-10 FG, 3-3 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists and one block over 35 minutes during Saturday's 107-98 win over the Rockets in Game 1 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    Ayton's scoring total was engineered in part by LeBron James, who found his big man often and generated a few assists by connecting with him. Ayton has had his share of inconsistencies this season, but he went toe-to-toe with Alperen Sengun and finished with the better rebound result. It's all hands on deck for the Lakers, who need balanced output from everyone with Luka Doncic (hamstring) and Austin Reaves (oblique) sidelined. Ayton needs to keep the volume up and assume additional responsibility as a scoring threat to keep ahead of the Rockets in the first-round series.

  • Lakers' LeBron James: Drops 13 dimes in convincing win

    James ended with 19 points (9-15 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 0-2 FT), eight rebounds, 13 assists, one block and two steals in 38 minutes during Saturday's 107-98 win over the Rockets in Game 1 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs.

    James racked up eight assists before the end of the first quarter, fully embracing his role as a ball distributor. He had time to perform his own heroics as a scorer as well. He converted 60 percent of his shots in the contest and was only two rebounds shy of his fourth triple-double of the season. With Luka Doncic (hamstring) and Austin Reaves (oblique) absent, James is expected to keep turning back the clock, churning out solid totals as the Lakers try to sweep the Rockets.

  • Lakers' Luke Kennard: Delivers 27 points in victory

    Kennard finished Saturday's 107-98 win over the Rockets in Game 1 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs with 27 points (9-13 FG, 5-5 3Pt, 4-6 FT), four rebounds and three assists across 38 minutes.

    Kennard has cemented himself as the primary beneficiary amidst the Lakers' injury woes. The team faced a bleary outlook coming into the series, considering Luka Doncic (hamstring) and Austin Reaves (oblique) are likely to miss the first-round series against the Rockets. Kennard has carried over his late-season heroics into the postseason and appears more than ready to continue the charge. He led all scorers in the game by a wide margin. If he can keep the stellar production going, the Lakers' chance of advancing will skyrocket.

  • Lakers' Luka Doncic: Out at least one more week

    Doncic (hamstring) will miss at least one more week, per Khobi Price of The California Post.

    Doncic is still considered out indefinitely due to a Grade 2 left hamstring strain, and his status for the first round of the playoffs versus Houston remains in serious doubt. With Austin Reaves (oblique) also out indefinitely, the Lakers will have to lean more heavily on LeBron James, and Luke Kennard should continue to play a more prominent role in the backcourt as well.

  • Lakers' Luka Doncic: To be re-evaluated Tuesday

    Doncic (hamstring) is scheduled to be re-evaluated on Tuesday, Shams Charania reported on the Pat McAfee Show.

    Doncic spent the past week in Spain undergoing multiple injection treatments on his Grade 2 hamstring strain. Charania notes that the expectation is that Doncic will be sidelined to start the series, which comes as no surprise, but there should be a better understanding of his timeline once the Lakers re-evaluate him.

  • Lakers' Luka Doncic: Seeking treatment in Europe

    Doncic will seek specialized medical treatment in Europe for his Grade 2 left hamstring strain, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

    This is an effort to expedite his return to play. Doncic has already been ruled out for the rest of the regular season, but it's no surprise that he will do everything in his power to make a return as early as possible into the postseason.

  • Lakers' Luka Doncic: To miss rest of regular season

    Doncic will miss the remainder of the regular season due to a Grade 2 left hamstring strain, and his status for the playoffs is uncertain, Chris Haynes of NBA TV reports.

    Doncic exited Thursday's blowout loss to the Thunder in the third quarter and will now miss an extended period with the hamstring injury. The superstar point guard will end the 2025-26 campaign with averages of 33.5 points, 8.3 assists, 7.7 rebounds, 1.6 steals and 0.5 blocks in 35.8 minutes per contest. He appeared in 64 regular-season games, finishing one game short of becoming eligible for end-of-season awards, including All-NBA teams and the MVP award. However, he intends to apply for an "Extraordinary Circumstances Challenge" to the 65-game rule, per Shams Charania of ESPN. With Doncic sidelined, Austin Reaves should see increased on-ball duties, while Jake LaRavia, Rui Hachimura and Bronny James are candidates to see increased burn going forward.

  • Lakers' Luka Doncic: Won't return Thursday

    Doncic (hamstring) is out for the remainder of Thursday's game against Oklahoma City, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports. He'll end the night with 12 points (3-10 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds, seven assists and one steal in 26 minutes.

    This news isn't unexpected given the amount of pain Doncic appeared to be in after suffering the injury, and the game was also out reach shortly after he departed for the locker room. The Lakers should have more information to share on the extent of the star guard's injury after running additional tests. Doncic is scheduled to undergo an MRI on Friday, per Dave McMenamin of ESPN.com.

  • Lakers' Luka Doncic: Heads to locker room

    Doncic went to the locker room during the third quarter of Thursday's game against the Thunder with an apparent left hamstring injury, Thuc Nhi Nguyen of the Los Angeles Times reports.

    Doncic looked to suffer the injury while pulling up for a shot attempt, and he was down on the baseline for a few minutes after the play before eventually getting up and limping to the locker room under his own power. The exact details of his injury are unclear at this time.

  • Lakers' Luka Doncic: Erupts for 42-point night

    Doncic registered 42 points (13-26 FG, 6-13 3Pt, 10-10 FT), five rebounds, 12 assists and two steals in 34 minutes during Tuesday's 127-113 win over the Cavaliers.

    Doncic didn't skip a beat after serving a one-game suspension Monday against the Wizards for picking up his 16th technical foul of the campaign. He put together an offensive masterpiece and secured his first double-double since March 18 by reaching double-digit assists. Doncic reached the 40-point threshold for the 16th time this year and closed March by reaching the 40-point mark in three consecutive showings.
