LOS ANGELES — The tone for Luka Doncic’s Lakers debut, a 132-113 home win against the Utah Jazz, was set before the 25-year-old recorded his first assist with an alley-oop to Jaxson Hayes less than a minute into the game.

Jazz rookie Isaiah Collier ran into traffic trying to create space to finish the play inside the paint. During the process, Collier landed a brutal elbow on Doncic's face, as apparent from the below-attached video by SportsCenter on X (formerly known as Twitter).

With Doncic, Lakers fans have the chance for something different, something more similar to what they had with Bryant or Johnson, both of whom spent their entire careers with the Lakers, winning five championships apiece in Los Angeles.
