As Doncic jogged down the court, he locked eyes with Edwards and nodded in acknowledgment.
Despite Doncic’s impressive performance of 37 points, eight assists, and two steals on 54.5% shooting, he struggled as a playmaker with only one assist in the halfcourt. On the other hand, Edwards shined for the Timberwolves with 22 points and nine assists, catching the Lakers off guard with his playmaking skills.
