Via StatMamba: "Luka Doncic in March:

30.1 PPG
8.4 RPG
8.6 APG

He’s the youngest Laker to average 30+ PPG in a single month since Kobe Bryant in 2003."

The Lakers are also the fourth seed in the Western Conference with a 46-29 record in 75 games.

They are in the middle of a two-game winning streak (and just 2.5 games back of the Rockets for the second seed).

On Thursday night, the Lakers will resume action with a major showdown against Steph Curry and the Golden State Warriors (at home).
