Luka Doncic<\/a> looked great on Wednesday night as he led the Los Angeles Lakers<\/a> to a 137-130 road win<\/a> over the Indiana Pacers<\/a> at Gainbridge Fieldhouse.<\/p>\n

Doncic turned in another awe-inspiring performance<\/a> with a game-high 43 points on 15-of-30 shooting. The six-time All-Star also added six rebounds, seven assists, a steal and four three-pointers in 38 minutes of action.<\/p>\n

The Lakers improved to 47-26 after taking down the Pacers. They remain third in the Western Conference and, as of writing, are 1.5 games ahead of the fourth-seeded Denver Nuggets<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The Lakers are back in action on Friday in a home game against the Brooklyn Nets<\/a>. The bad news, however, is that Doncic is in danger of missing the game.<\/p>\n

Doncic has been nothing short of spectacular in his first full season in L.A. In 61 games played thus far, the 26-year-old is averaging a league-best 33.6 points on 47.4% shooting, 7.8 rebounds, 8.1 assists and 1.6 steals in 35.9 minutes per contest. Doncic is also connecting on 4.0 triples per game.<\/p>\n

The Lakers submitted their injury report for the Nets game, and there is some unwanted news on the Doncic front. The five-time All-NBA guard is currently dealing with a sore left hamstring and is officially listed as questionable to play. <\/p>\n

Doncic\u2019s injury does not seem significant. However, it is serious enough to potentially force him to miss Friday\u2019s matchup against the Nets. If Doncic is out, LeBron James<\/a> and Austin Reaves will need to step up to fill the void.<\/p>\n

Rui Hachimura<\/a> (calf) is in danger of missing another game after also being listed as questionable to play. Marcus Smart (ankle), on the other hand, remains out for the Lakers.<\/p>\n

L.A. should make a decision on Doncic\u2019s final status closer to tip-off.<\/p>\n
