Doncic led the team to sink the Clippers with 31 points on his birthday night, and this time he once again played the winning hero in the Los Angeles Civil War, showing a great touch at the beginning of the game, and making 5 three-pointers on the day was a new high since joining the Purple and Gold.
After the Lakers' win, their record came to 38-21 and temporarily ranked second in the NBA West, Doncic was asked after the game and said, "I didn't know at all, of course it's great to be in this position, but I really don't know, I don't care much about the rankings." ”
Lakers head coach Redick praised Doncic after the game, "Throughout the game, when we needed to score, when we needed to attract second and third defenders, he made the right choices, and he played well except for those six turnovers." Redick later said that in addition to Doncic's usual passion and fighting spirit, his "inner demon" seemed to have been awakened that day, so it brought a lot of help to the team.
