Luka Doncic drops triple-double to power Lakers to victory over Heat

Luka Doncic 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 couldn’t keep up his torrid start of three consecutive 40-point performances while making just one of 11 three-pointers, but Doncic still led six Lakers in double-figure scoring with 29 points, 10 assists and 11 rebounds.

Austin Reaves shook off a cold-shooting night, going four for 14 from three-point range, to finish with 26 points and 11 assists to just three turnovers. When he hit his fourth three-pointer to give the Lakers (5-2) an 11-point lead with less than two minutes remaining, Reaves held up both palms in relief.
