Luka Doncic has been a member of the Los Angeles Lakers for over a month now, endearing himself to the Lakers faithful almost immediately.
Doncic has a chance to further strengthen that relationship Saturday when the Lakers face the Boston Celtics at TD Garden (8:30 p.m. ET on ABC). It marks Doncic's debut in the iconic Lakers-Celtics rivalry.
Doncic has played in 11 regular-season games against Boston, averaging 29.9 points, 8.8 rebounds and 7.5 assists per game. While with the Dallas Mavericks, Doncic and the Celtics went head-to-head in the 2024 NBA Finals.
