Luka Doncic Scores 31 Points And 'Destroys' Denver Without Jokic And Murray



The Los Angeles Lakers beat the Denver Nuggets 120-108 in the early hours of Wednesday morning, on a night when Luka Doncic was 'king' in the face of several absentees.


Nikola Jokic and Jamal Murray - two of the visiting team's main figures - were not on the court due to injury, as was LeBron James for the visitors.


Luka scored 31 points in the match and was the game's top scorer, while Aaron Gordon was the star for Denver with 26 points, including five triples in nine attempts (55% efficiency).


As a result, the Lakers overtook the Nuggets in third place in the Western Conference standings and are getting closer to securing their place in the NBA playoffs.
