While there was some uncertainty around whether or not James and Doncic would be suiting up on Saturday night in Denver, the Lakers have confirmed their final status. Doncic and James are both available for Saturday night, despite being listed on the injury report due to injury management.

LeBron James used a football reason to reveal why his connection with Luka Doncic is perfect as teammates on the Lakers.

Less than two minutes into the Los Angeles Lakers' 123-100 win over the Denver Nuggets on Saturday, Luka Dončić grabbed a rebound, immediately turned his head, and without even dribbling threw a perfect full-court outlet pass that hit LeBron James in style for a slam.
