We were able to generate really good offense, Lakers coach JJ Redick said. Our three main guys did a nice job of playing off of each other.
Special, Doncic said of his 24-minute Lakers debut. The way they received me, everybody, it was amazing to see. I was a little bit nervous before.

It was fun. And just being out there again felt amazing. Doncic's first basket was a 3-pointer in the opening minutes.
