Some of Hollywood’s brightest stars were drawn to Crypto.com Arena on Monday night to catch Luka Doncic‘s first-ever Lakers game … and the new L.A. superstar didn’t disappoint.
Logging his first minutes in purple and gold since the Mavericks traded him away earlier this month, Doncic played well in a 132-113 win over the Utah Jazz … as a ton of A-listers sat just feet away.
Adele, Rich Paul, Floyd Mayweather, Will Ferrell and a gaggle of others — including Dallas legend Dirk Nowitzki — caught the action … and enjoyed an impressive victory in Doncic’s debut.
Luka played in a little less than half the contest — as he’s still recovering from a calf injury he sustained in December — but he was still able to post 14 points, five rebounds and four assists.
Following the game, Doncic said it was a LeBron James pump-up speech that helped him shake off some of the nervous energy he had heading into the matchup.
The 18,997 in attendance all got Doncic T-shirts as part of a pregame giveaway … something Luka said was “surreal” to see.
Puka Nacua — the Rams star wide receiver — also hit up the contest … and following the big victory, he actually did a cool jersey swap with L.A.’s new acquisition.
Both dudes were all smiles — and if Doncic keeps playing well and helping pile up the wins for the Lakers … Angelenos everywhere are going to have a hard time wiping grins off their faces, too.
