The Los Angeles Lakers had two specific goals entering Friday's clash against the Houston Rockets: to secure the third seed and their 50th win. The Rockets made those tasks easier by resting nearly all their starters and rotational players, but the Lakers still needed to take care of business, which they did with a dominant 140-109 victory.

Luka Doncic truly announced himself as a true Los Angeles Laker by coolly putting 45 points on his former team, the Dallas Mavericks, after their tribute video had him tearing up pregame. That's the type of cold-blooded performance that will endear you to a fanbase that was used to watching an emotionless killer like the Black Mamba for so long.

Dallas Mavericks fans refuse to move on from the Luka Doncic trade, chanting for GM Nico Harrison to get fired during Luka's return to Dallas.
