Luka Doncic made his Laker debut Monday night against the Utah Jazz at Crypto.com Arena while LeBron James returned to action after a one-game absence.

The Utah Jazz got a chance to see Luka Doncic for his first game in a Los Angeles Lakers jersey, and it's looking likely they'll be gearing up to see him for a second time on Wednesday night.
