Many people reacted to his performance on social media.
@RajChipalu: “Luka is inheriting the Dillon Brooks beef.”
@LakersDailyCom: “This is the fastest Luka’s looked in a Lakers uniform”
@showtimeluka: “I don’t think I’ve ever seen another player generate the amount of open shots for other players as Luka Dončić does.”
@nylaabell: “Luka’s playmaking has pretty much led to a wide open 3 every possession this quarter. Now imagine this roster with a bunch of shooters like Boston”
Ryan Ward: “Lakers get a BIG W against a good Rockets squad! Especially impressive with the Big 3 (Luka, LeBron and Reaves) not having a great game offensively”
Skip Bayless: “Lakers made it closer than it should’ve been vs Rockets playing back-to-back but GabeV and DFS with 6 threes each took the heat off Luka (1-7 from 3).”
@ClaireMPLS: “dillon brooks was screaming and clapping after forcing that lakers possession to go out of bounds and luka looked at the crowd and rolled his eyes lmao this is comedy”
Bleacher Report: “LUKA SNATCHED SENGUN’S ANKLES 😱😱”
