LeBron and Doncic create ‘iconic’ photo

It was a solid win. The Lakers defeated the Memphis Grizzlies 134-127 in a game marked by the debut of Grizzlies interim coach Tuomas Iisalo, who replaced Taylor Jenkins with only nine regular season games left.

LA scorers were led by Austin Reaves (31 points), with star pairing Luka Doncic (29) and LeBron James (25) ensuring a victory that pushes the Lakers into a higher playoff seed in the Western Conference, as they try to find form under coach J.J. Redick after recent struggles.

And it was Doncic and James who created one of the images of the night. ‘Iconic’ was the chosen word for the post on the official Lakers social media account.

And here’s the play that led to that shot, with the new boy handing off a no-look pass to his veteran teammate.

Next up for the Lakers, the Houston Rockets and then the Golden State Warriors at the Crypto.com Arena.
