Luka Doncic is making everyone who doubted the trade look foolish, folks. And I mean everyone.

The Lakers demolished the Cavaliers 127-113 on Tuesday night, and Luka was absolutely spectacular: 42 points, 12 assists, and zero turnovers. Let me repeat that - zero turnovers while running the entire offense.

According to ESPN's box score, Luka shot 13-26 from the field, 6-13 from three, and a perfect 10-10 from the free throw line. That's clinical efficiency from a player who's averaging 40 points per game over his last 13 contests. The Lakers are 12-1 in that stretch.

Yeah, you read that right. Forty points per game over 13 games. The numbers are video game territory: 44, 35, 31, 51, 30, 36, 40, 60, 33, 32, 43, 41, 42. That's not a hot streak - that's sustained excellence.

And here's the thing that makes this even more special - this was against the Cavaliers, the team that nearly traded for him. The storylines wrote themselves. Luka facing his almost-destination. LeBron James playing his former team. The drama was thick.

LeBron had his own revenge moment with an alley-oop slam that brought the Crypto.com Arena crowd to its feet. But this night belonged to Luka.

Here's what should terrify the rest of the league: At 27 years old, Luka just became the third-youngest player to reach 15,000 career points, behind only LeBron James and Kevin Durant. He's ahead of Kobe Bryant and on that list.
