Dončić has been out since Christmas as he recovers from a calf injury. Since then, he unassumingly became the nexus of a media cycle that bordered on surreal. Monday was set up as a (relatively) quiet way to debut on the Lakers’ regional broadcast, but ESPN inevitably slid in to grab this one. In-market fans can still watch on Spectrum SportsNet.

The Luka Dončić show is coming to Los Angeles and ESPN will be there to air it. On Monday, the Utah Jazz and Lauri Markkanen will visit the Los Angeles Lakers and the newly-acquired Dončić in his expected Lakers debut at 10:30 p.m. ET on ESPN.

The Los Angeles Lakers are on a bit of a hot streak, and backup could soon be arriving to make them even deadlier. Winners of the last five, the Lakers have played three of those games after the Anthony Davis trade and one without LeBron James as well.
