Luka Dončić's debut in Los Angeles was a highly anticipated event, full of energy and excitement as fans welcomed the new star with enthusiasm. The Lakers defeated the Jazz 132-113, but the focus remained on Luka, who received a warm welcome with a special Luka 77 shirt on each seat. Pre-game rituals included DJ music from Serbia that Luka enjoyed, and he was honored by being the last announced starter, showcasing strong support from teammates like LeBron James. Despite a rocky start after an injury hiatus, the fans remained supportive during the game.
Yeah, he texted me in the morning. He said, 'Whatever you want.' For him to text me that, it's just amazing, so it shows what kind of person he is.
The typically fashionably late Lakers fans packed the stadium quickly and every fan was greeted with a Luka 77 shirt on their chair.
Despite the excitement, Dončić struggled initially, a natural result of missing over a month to injury.
The Lakers cruised to a 132-113 win over the Jazz, leading by as many as 34.
