Lakers Star Shines Against Great Britain…
The Los Angeles Lakers fans turned into one gigantic human pretzel with worry when Luka Doncic seemed injured, but he returned like a superhero escaping from a comic book! Luka was back! With his cape on, he dropped 28 points, grabbed six rebounds, and passed out 10 assists, leading Slovenia to a thrilling 93-81 victory over Great Britain. It’s like his scoring finger had jet lag only when he attempted threes, sinking just 2 of his 11 shots; otherwise, he was flawless.
Slovenia had a grip tighter than a toddler holding onto candy, holding a 75-52 lead entering the fourth quarter. Doncic enjoyed a rest fit for a sloth on a bed of marshmallows as EuroBasket nears. His knee scare was just a bump in the road, with a teammate’s slip giving everyone a fright, but like a bouncy ball, Luka sprang back. Next up, Slovenia faces Serbia on Aug. 21, and on Aug. 28, they’ll clash with Poland in EuroBasket action.
