Luka Doncic's debut with the Los Angeles Lakers scored massive ratings for ESPN despite coming in a game that started at 10:30 p.m. ET and whose result was never in doubt.

Die-hard Doncic fans in Dallas have called for Dallas Mavericks ‘ general manager Nico Harrison’s firing in a massive rally while some have demanded the Adelson family to sell the team after their beloved franchise star was unceremoniously traded. Mavericks governor Patrick Dumont was booed during the team’s second home game since the trade.
