Luka Dončić Triple-Double
Luka Dončić had 31 points, 11 rebounds, and 11 assists for the Lakers in a 120-106 win over the Timberwolves Los Angeles Times, helping the Lakers move to fourth in the West CBS Sports.
Dončić has recorded a league-leading 15 triple-doubles this season. He is now only two triple-doubles away from tying Larry Bird for 9th on the all-time list. The Lakers are now 6-4 in their last 10 games, and this win puts them ahead of the Kings in the Western Conference standings. They are now looking to secure a top-4 seed in the West to gain home-court advantage in the playoffs. Minnesota, who was without Karl-Anthony Towns, struggled to contain the Lakers' offense, allowing Los Angeles to shoot 52% from the field. Anthony Edwards led the Timberwolves with 25 points, but it wasn't enough to overcome the Lakers' balanced attack.
