🎩 Luka Magic Weekly Recap 💫

Luka keeps turning the hardwood into his personal stage, and this week, the spotlight never left him.

The Lakers went 2-3 during a tough five-game stretch, but through every twist and turn, Luka dazzled — carrying LA with elite shotmaking, relentless playmaking, and his signature flair. 🎭💜💛

And here’s the plot twist 🎥: LeBron James is back. The King has returned to the lineup — but this time, he’s playing a different role. Rather than reclaim centre stage, LeBron seems content to pass the crown (or at least the spotlight), allowing Luka to run the show.

Near triple-double 💪, a double-digit rebound night 💥, and only 1 turnover

🗓️ Sun 3/30 — @ MEM ✅ W 134-127
