SALT LAKE CITY — After posting a stat line reached by only one other player in NBA history in the Los Angeles Lakers' 143-135 win over the Utah Jazz on Thursday, Luka Doncic hardly sounded impressed with himself.
"I think, honestly, I could do so much more," Doncic said after totaling 45 points, 14 assists, 11 rebounds, 5 steals and only 1 turnover. "But I think that one turnover is the best stat-wise on this stat sheet. We had seven turnovers, which is impressive for us and we won the game."
