Luka Doncic Claps Back at Reggie Miller and More After Setting Historic Defensive Record vs. Raptors

Luka Doncic has heard the criticism about his defense for years. His offensive brilliance has rarely been questioned, but his work on the other end has often become a talking point. However, his latest performance against the Toronto Raptors offered a different perspective on his defensive abilities, earning praise from both the Los Angeles Lakers coaching staff and his teammates. Earlier in the press conference, JJ Redick called Doncic’s defensive display “awesome.” Walker Kessler doubled down on that assessment, describing his teammate as “incredible.” When reporters asked Luka about the compliments, he could not resist a sarcastic response.
