Lakers Preseason Updates: Luka Doncic To Play In 2 Games, Marcus Smart To Make Debut Vs. Warriors

Lakers Preseason Updates

The Los Angeles Lakers will play Luka Doncic in two preseason games, while Marcus Smart will make his debut against the Golden State Warriors.

After a week off, the Lakers will return to the court on Sunday night, hosting the Warriors at Crypto.com Arena. The team has four preseason games left, which will be their final tuneups before the regular season.

The Lakers are being cautious with Luka Doncic, who recently played in EuroBasket with Slovenia. Other players, including Marcus Smart, Maxi Kleber, and Adou Thiero, have missed the first two preseason games due to minor injuries.

The Lakers can use as much time on the court together as possible to build chemistry.

The team will face the Warriors again in their regular season opener at home.
