Luka Doncic has not gotten off to the hottest start since being traded to the Los Angeles Lakers. The former Dallas Mavericks star is averaging just 14.7 PPG and 4.0 turnovers while shooting 35.6% from the floor in his first three games since returning from a pretty serious calf strain.

In Wednesday night's home game against the Charlotte Hornets, Doncic and James started running the show for the Los Angeles Lakers. Early in the first quarter, with the Hornets leading 2-0, James fired a quick pass to Doncic for a layup. Shortly after, Doncic grabbed a defensive rebound and tossed a full-court pass to James for a dunk.

The Los Angeles Lakers made a blockbuster move before the trade deadline, acquiring Luka Doncic from the Dallas Mavericks in hopes of boosting their championship aspirations. However, the team has struggled to find its rhythm since his arrival, with the latest setback being a disappointing 100-97 loss to the Charlotte Hornets on Wednesday night.
