NETS at LAKERS | FULL GAME HIGHLIGHTS | March 27, 2026
LUKA DONCIC SCORES 41 POINTS AND GETS HIS 16TH TECHNICAL FOUL IN LAKERS' 116-99 WIN OVER NETS
Tonight's Game Observation:
- Despite the win I noticed that our team always plays to the level of the competition. It is good we won the rebounding comparison but again it is against the Nets. The Nets beat us in Assists and about the same in Turnovers. It is true that Luka got 41 points but he is also our top player in turnovers with 5.
Suggestion:
- Great job in rebounding but continue not to assume the ball is going to the basket on both sides of the court.
Dear Coach:
- Please provide playing time for Adou and see if he can find his role come playoff time.

LOS ANGELES (AP) Luka Doncic had 41 points and eight rebounds while also picking up his suspension-triggering 16th technical foul during the Los Angeles Lakers ' 116-99 victory over the Brooklyn Nets on Friday night.
Austin Reaves scored 15 of his 26 points in the fourth quarter while the Lakers finally pulled away from the young Nets to secure their 11th victory in 12 games.
LeBron James added 14 points and eight assists for the Lakers in their return from a 5-1 road trip that has put them in third in the Western Conference standings.
Josh Minott had 18 points and six rebounds in Brooklyn's 10th consecutive loss. Nic Claxton and Ziaire Williams scored 16 points apiece while leading the Nets' lively effort, but both starters were kept on the bench for the entire fourth quarter along with Noah Clowney.
The young Nets still hung with the road-weary Lakers until the final minutes, erasing an early double-digit deficit and leading in the fourth quarter of their 20th loss in 22 games overall.
Doncic hit five 3-pointers during his 15th 40-point game of the season, but the Slovenian superstar found trouble when he and Williams were whistled for double technical fouls in the third quarter.
Williams was celebrating an offensive foul called against Doncic by gleefully screaming in Doncic's personal space. When Doncic reached out to shove Williams' arm, Williams responded with a backhand swipe across Doncic's face.
Unless Doncic's technical is rescinded, he will be suspended for a game. He already had a technical rescinded last week after he was whistled for a verbal altercation with Orlando's Goga Bitadze.
Bronny James played alongside his famous father for the second straight game, with LeBron getting the first father-son assist in NBA history on Bronny's 3-pointer in the second quarter. Bronny has been limited largely to mop-up action in his first two NBA seasons, but he has earned rotation minutes this week in the injury absence of Marcus Smart.
Bronny and Williams played together in high school at Sierra Canyon School in suburban Los Angeles.
