Pau Gasol and Kobe didn’t do it: Doncic, recital of the world’s best player
Luka Doncic He dominates every whim with his newly sculpted body, intellect, and gaze. Also due to his status, the referees were reverent with countless angry protests, even though the “77” player was not immune to the technique. But in the end, as in the case of the former, the umpires also give special treatment to the selectors. real madridwith his stellar performance on the court yesterday in the Lakers’ balsamic victory, earned him the right to declare himself the best player in the world, standing at the top of the Most Selected Players. utah jazz (135-143): 45 points, 11 rebounds, 14 assists, 14-of-28 from the field, 4-of-12 from the field.
Doncic recorded his first triple-double. 40 points He is the 10th player in the purple and gold uniform of his career and the only player in Lakers history to record a 45-point triple-double. Elgin Baylor If it weren’t for other myths of the Los Angeles sky, kobe bryant, magic johnson Either pau gasol They will never reach that milestone. Slovenes always received valuable assistance lebron james He had 28 points and 10 assists, essentially doubling down to make up for the subtle absences of Austin Reeves and Deandre Ayton, but he didn’t blame altitude sickness at 1,300 meters in Salt Lake City or a heartbreaking Cup elimination duel with the Spurs.
The Jazz were also without star players Lauri Markkanen and Walker Kessler all season and were depleted with just 34 points. keyontae george And rookie ace Bailey’s 19 wasn’t even close.
In a very close game, with the Jazz in the lead, but only a narrow victory until the final quarter, ’77’ always found the inspiration to rub the lamp and the energy to remain resourceful and sharp in execution. His new tipping didn’t mean another change at point guard, but rather the ability to maintain an edge throughout the game.
As irrefutable proof of his desire and further speed and freshness, Doncic 5 robberiesequal to the upper limit of his recovery. He is currently the NBA’s leading scorer with an average of 35 points and is the runner-up and third in the MVP race. Nikola Jokic and Shai Gilgeous-Alexander.

The only Lakers player to do what the Slovenian did last night.
Elgin Baylor and Luka Doncic
At 26, he’s still trying to find his true limits, he just said in an interview. ESPN He can do “more” — and the Slovenian worked hard last night to improve on the concerns laid out by the Lakers’ coach. JJ Reddickpointed out to MD his game and loss without the ball.
With just one loss, the Slovenian continued to score when he wasn’t the main handler, occasionally hitting triples on his feet. Of course, there’s still a lot of room for improvement in terms of protesting referees and controlling himself on defense, as the Jazz shook him up by involving him in the act of having to pass blocks.
Utah clung to a weakness in the Lakers’ defense that didn’t establish itself on the other side of the court until the final quarter, when Doncic’s usual rest at the beginning of the final half allowed the team in purple and gold to tightly close on the perimeter, with LeBron serving as a base. Maxi Kleber “5”. After starting the final quarter trailing 106-102, Reddick’s team went on an 8-0 run to take a 110-117 lead.
The Jazz couldn’t find a way to contain Doncic, but Doncic once again enjoyed some attention-grabbing defense. The former Real Madrid player often found cracks in Utah’s defense. blitzkrieg of pick-and-rolls with a handful of willing accomplices around him. marcus smart (17 points), Jackson Hayes (16 points), Rui Hachimura (13 points), and Jake LaRabia (12 points). ’77’ played with smaller defenders like Keyontae George at will, calling for help and posting him to find open teammates.
The Lakers are 19-7 and are tied for third place in the MVP standings with Luka Doncic. The NBA Most Valuable Player honor is a long-distance race, and the Slovenian always ended up running out of breath and falling from the extra kilos. But with his new look this season, that has to change: last night was the declaration: The best player in the world.

Forbes named the most valuable sports team of 2025
Version Forbes announced its annual ranking of the world’s most expensive sports teams.
NFL franchise Dallas Cowboys, estimated to be worth $13 billion, has led the pack for the ninth year in a row.
While NBA Golden State Warriors ranked second with a valuation of $11 billion, another representative of American football, Los Angeles Rams (10.5 billion), was in the top three.

Also in the top 50 are Manchester United (24th, 6.6 billion), Barcelona (42nd, 5.65 billion) and Liverpool (48th, 5.4 billion). In total, only four football clubs are represented in the top 50 rankings.

The coach of the Super League club threatened the team with a squad change
On December 20-21, Niko-Basket lost two home matches to Dnepr and Zaporozhye in the eighth round of the Super League and therefore finished the calendar year in 9th place in the standings with 4 wins in 14 matches.
Head coach of the team after the defeat of Zaporozhye (67:78) Valentin Berestnev He listed the reasons for the team’s unsuccessful results as follows:
“Counting the first, third and fourth quarters, we won by one point each. We lost the entire game in the second quarter. We had a 7-point lead in the second quarter, but we finished with minus 9. We lost the fight, lost the rebounds, made childish mistakes. This caused the opponent to get over the shock of being behind 12:19 and the game turned in another direction.
We could not find a leader who could do what Lovings and Lishchina did. Eisa scored almost 30 points per game, surpassing our fourth point.
I would like to thank our fans who supported us until the end. They said warm and kind words to us after the match. This is our first year playing in the Super League. Most of the players have no experience of playing in the Super League: Max (Grischuk), Vitaly (Volodin), Bodya (Likhoy). Zaitsev, Safonov and Garbar have experience. Kabanov has little experience. This is a difficult season for them, which will show who will advance to the Super League level and who will not.
Therefore, I would like to thank our fans once again. There were two alarms today. Yesterday we finished the match three hours later than planned. Despite this, people stayed and supported us. We are very grateful for this support.
We train six times a week, twice a day to improve our game. I believe that we will overcome this situation and have a team that will compete for Super League awards, become a strong middle team and beat everyone at home, just like 10-15 years ago.
Most of the guys have no experience, so mistakes are made. Not technical, tactical. There is a lack of a leader who will take responsibility in difficult times. Now we are looking for such a player in the team. If we can’t find it, we will face three foreign players like most other teams. If our audience likes it.”
