🏀 LukA Doncic's City

Since Dončić's arrival, the Lakers have experienced a remarkable surge 📈 and have been one of the league’s best since late January. In a much anticipated game against his former team, Dončić recorded his first triple-double as a Laker, amassing 19 points, 15 rebounds, and 12 assists in a 107-99 win against the Mavericks, which undoubtedly made every Maverick fan cry (at least a little) 😢 while they watched their former beloved superstar carve up their team in Los Angeles! The synergy between Dončić and James has revitalized the Lakers' offense, with both players consistently delivering standout performances over the last month. This newfound chemistry has propelled the team to the upper echelons of the Western Conference standings, positioning them as formidable contenders for the championship. Time to take a flyer on the Lakers winning the title? DraftKings has them at +1700…

Meanwhile, MLB spring training is in full swing now ⚾ and based on Ohtani’s HR in his first at-bat of the spring season, it looks like LA may have another team looking to make a championship 🏆 run this year! Oh, and for us football fans, the NFL Combine is in full swing in Indianapolis this weekend! Who do you think will go #1 in the NFL Draft??

Here’s to hoping your bets this weekend leave you feeling like a Lakers fan - and not a Mavs fan! And remember friends…

While players complete a range of drills during the Combine, the 40 is undeniably the headlining event, with coaches and fans eager to see who runs the fastest and with the players eager to make themselves some money by running a good time.
