Lakers Seek Redemption Against Jazz with Doncic's Debut
The Los Angeles Lakers aim to continue their winning momentum against the struggling Utah Jazz, featuring Luka Doncic's highly anticipated first game in a Lakers uniform.
The Los Angeles Lakers (31-19) are set to welcome new star Luka Doncic when they take on the Utah Jazz (12-39) on Monday night. Acquired on February 2 from the Mavericks for Anthony Davis, Doncic’s debut has been postponed due to a calf injury, currently listed as questionable.
Los Angeles is riding high with 11 wins in the last 13 games, including a five-game winning streak heading into this contest. Conversely, the Jazz have lost three of their last four despite competitive outings, including recent losses to playoff contenders like the Clippers.
