"Luka Doncic couldn't keep up his torrid start but finished with his first triple-double of the season, leading the Lakers to a 130-120 victory over the Miami Heat at Crypto.com Arena on Sunday. The star guard, who opened the season with three consecutive 40-point performances, was held to 29 while making just one of 11 three-pointers, but Doncic still led six Lakers in double-digit scoring and added 11 rebounds and 10 assists."
"Doncic and Reaves struggled in the first quarter, shooting a combined two for seven from the field. Yet the Lakers still led by seven as the star duo combined for eight assists. Big man Jaxson Hayes was one of the main beneficiaries, scoring 11 points on five-of-five shooting. He had a ferocious one-handed dunk off a Doncic assist that got Hayes so amped up that he head-butted the basket stanchion in celebration."
