Another 41+9+6, Doncic became the best in the 21st century! The Lakers won 8 of 10 games and received 3 small surprises in one breath

2:05pm, 16 November 2025Basketball

It’s so incomprehensible! He lost 77 points and hit 41+9+6. Doncic, who has successfully lost weight, is worthy of his offensive power and is easily the best player in the 21st century! While the Lakers advanced to 8 wins in 10 games, they also received three small surprises in one breath, waiting for the 40-year-old James to return to compete for the championship.

The Lakers have won 8 out of 10 games

After easily defeating the Pelicans in the previous game, the Lakers faced off against the Bucks. As a result, this strong dialogue was one-sided early, and the Lakers had established a 31-point lead at halftime. In the end, the Lakers beat the Bucks 119-95.

After winning this victory, the Lakers used two consecutive big wins to wipe away the haze of the previous disastrous defeat to the Thunder. This gave the Lakers an impressive record of 10 wins and 8 wins in the past 10 games.

Doncic's best performance in history

In the long-term absence of James, the Lakers can still advance soaringly. One of the core reasons is Doncic's unsolvable offensive performance after completing the slimming down.

Doncic continued his fiery performance in this game, blossoming both inside and outside the offensive end. He scored 41 points, 9 rebounds, 6 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks, scoring 41 points on 5 of 11 three-pointers.

This is the epitome of Doncic's overall performance this season. This game is the fourth time he has scored 40+ points in a single game this season, which is the same as last season.

At the same time, Doncic has scored 40+ points in a single game for the 50th time in his career. He only spent 460 games, the fastest among players in the 21st century.

This makes the 26-year-old Doncic the fourth player in NBA history to score at least 50 times with 40+ points before the age of 27. The other three are Chamberlain, Jordan and McAdoo.

In less than two seasons after joining the Lakers, Doncic has scored 40+ points 6 times, tying Magic Johnson for tenth in team history.

In addition to Doncic, Reeves, who has made great progress this season, also continued his hot performance. He easily scored 25 points, 6 rebounds and 8 assists on 5 of 9 three-pointers. He played the most reliable green leaf role next to Doncic, a red star.

Ayton also easily won the cake thanks to the combination of Doncic and Reeves, once again delivering a 20+10 double-double.

This is the fifth time Ayton has handed over 20+10 data in a single game at the beginning of the season. It only took 13 games, and the Lakers acquired him in only 2 years and 16.6 million US dollars.

Welcome 3 small surprises in one breath

With the core players' stable output, the Lakers, who played back-to-back games, adopted a long rotation, and several fringe players got opportunities. Among them, 3 small surprises are worthy of attention.

First of all, Bronny started the game. Although he only played 9 minutes and scored 0-for-2 without scoring, he got 1 rebound, 1 assist and 1 steal, and the team won the victory.

The most important thing is that Brownie went from being a substitute in the G League to being a stable substitute and starting this game. Brownie, who has been questioned, has gradually used his own efforts and growth to defeat the doubts.

It is worth mentioning that his father James is currently sent to the G League for training. Such an interesting comparison was also ridiculed by teammate Reeves after the game.

The second small surprise is that Tierro, the 36th pick in the second round, made his debut. He had been absent due to injuries before.

In less than 5 minutes of playing time, Tierro made 1 of 1 free throws, 2 of 2 free throws, and scored 4 points and 1 rebound. On both offense and defense, he had the style of Vanderbilt.

After the game, Vanderbilt also stepped forward to ask for the ball for this game for this little brother, but the referee took it back. Fortunately, Antetokounmpo gave it back.

The third little surprise is that Kleber entered the rotation and played for 25 minutes. He scored 3 points, 1 rebound and 3 assists on 1-of-1 three-pointers. He ranked third in the game in plus-minus value of +22.

Although there were 5 fouls in one breath, for Kleber, who had already fallen out of the rotation due to injury, just being able to play on the court is great news for the Lakers.

Whether it is the record of 10 wins and 4 losses, the hot state of core players such as Doncic and Reeves, and the rotation of fringe players to share the pressure, the Lakers seem to be expected to return to the championship. Next, they just need to wait for James to come back and make the final decision.
