Many people reacted to his performance on social media.

Real Sports: "Luka Doncic has the 7th most 20-PT halves by a Lakers player since 2000 😳"

StatMamba: "Luka Doncic has the 2nd most 20-point halves in the entire NBA this month."

@TheHoopCentral: "Luka with the moves. 🔥"

Spectrum SportsNet: "The vision 👀"

StatMuse: "Luka in the first half vs Orlando:"

@LSH_lakeshow: "Luka just kicked the ball and realized he hit a fan 💀😂"

@Klutch_23: "Still not one good game from the trio of LeBron Luka and Austin since the first Nuggets game.

The meshing will take more time than anticipated."

@LakersNation: "Luka showin up on defense, and then fouled on the 3 by KCP

He knocks down all 3 and we're within 7"

@ThePettiestLA: "Luka has been sensational. Need to see that fight in everyone else."

@RajChipalu: "Still some growing pains with Bron Luka & Austin on the offensive end.

Too reliant on contested shot making right now."

@ItsTurnerBruh: "Luka is really bad at short range bank shots and floaters… puts wayyyy too much spin on the ball it’s always rolls out or falls short. He needs to add a little push shot to his game instead of flicking it so hard. Lakers stinkin it up again"
