The Lakers are on a winning streak with Luka Doncic recently joining the team. In their Sunday night game against the Clippers, they secured their sixth straight win, improving their season record to 38-21.
Luka Doncic had an amazing performance in his fifth game with the Lakers. He scored 29 points, grabbed six rebounds, and dished out nine assists, playing a key role in the team’s victory.
However, what’s really grabbing attention online is his trash-talk moment with Clippers’ point guard James Harden. The trash-talking moment happened when Doncic scored on Harden and was caught on camera taunting the Clippers’ star.

Even though Harden’s attempt didn’t work out, Luka wasn’t shy about giving it back to him. The cameras captured Luka saying some bold words, which lip readers later confirmed were, “You can’t f***ing guard me.”
Even though the 35-year-old Harden used strong words, it was clear that Luka was showing his confidence and dominance in a Lakers jersey. It didn’t matter if the “Big Beard” was right in front of him. The video of the exchange quickly went viral, sparking reactions from fans.

Luka Doncic is definitely shining in a Lakers jersey, even more than he did with the Dallas Mavericks. Fans are loving his performance, though some of his early games weren’t as mesmerizing.
During those trash-talk moments, Luka wasn’t the only one fired up—fans on social media were getting just as hyped. Some even joked that Luka should’ve told Harden that louder again so Harden could hear him more clearly.
tell him again so he can’t understand
