What happened
Luka Dončić powered Los Angeles past Miami 138-117 on Monday, scoring 42 points with 13 assists and seven rebounds while averaging 38.3 points and 5.9 threes.
Miami doubled him repeatedly, and JJ Redick's club again showed vulnerability when Dončić sat, after the bench nearly squandered Sunday’s lead versus Toronto.
LINEUP CONTEXT
If Dončić misses time, Los Angeles must lean more on Reaves and the bench, whose non-Luka lineups have recently been unstable.
