6 Dec
Summary
- Luka Dončić misses games due to the birth of his second child.
- He is expected to return for the Lakers' upcoming matchup.
- The Lakers have performed well with a 4-1 record during his absence.
Los Angeles Lakers guard Luka Dončić has been absent from recent games, including a road victory over the Toronto Raptors, for personal reasons. He will also miss the upcoming game against the Boston Celtics. Head coach JJ Redick indicated that Dončić's return is imminent, possibly as early as the Lakers' next game on Sunday.
The reason for Dončić's absence is the birth of his second child with fiancée Anamaria Goltes in his native Slovenia. This personal milestone has led to his temporary departure from the team. While he is away, the Lakers have managed to secure a close 123-120 win against the Raptors, with strong performances from other players.
Despite missing their star player, the Lakers have demonstrated resilience, boasting a 4-1 record during Dončić's recent absences, highlighting the team's depth. His return will be eagerly awaited as the Lakers continue their strong season, aiming for a deep playoff run.
