Luka Doncic scored well with 38 points on 13/28 shooting, but he only had two assists and one rebound, and his defense wasn't great either. Timberwolves star Anthony Edwards was hunting for Doncic on switches often and that led to 43 points for Edwards. But some are using this performance as a reason why the Mavericks were correct to trade Doncic.

Luka Doncic and the Los Angeles Lakers are down 3-1 in the playoffs, and one major problem in the series was one Doncic would have avoided for the Dallas Mavericks.
