Dončić Scores 53 as Lakers Beat Trail Blazers 124-118; Averages 40.1 on the Season
Los Angeles Lakers star Luka Doncic scored a season-high 53 points on Friday, November 6, helping the Lakers overcome a slow start and beat the Portland Trail Blazers 124-118 at home, outscoring Portland 34-15 in the third quarter.
Doncic has averaged 40.1 points on the season, and 45.0 during four games this month while shooting 52.4 percent overall and 25 of 55 (45.5 percent) from three-point range. The Lakers have averaged 127.3 points while going 4-0 in November, and entered play Saturday tied for the NBA's best start at 8-2. Los Angeles is 3-1 on the road, with Doncic averaging 43.0 points and shooting 42.6 percent from beyond the arc while playing in three of those road games.
The Lakers next visit the Detroit Pistons on Sunday night. Detroit leads the Central Division with six wins through its first eight games before falling 112-106 at home to the Philadelphia 76ers on Wednesday, just its second loss of the young season. A hamstring injury has limited key starter Jalen Duren to just two games this season.
