In the NBA Cup, the Lakers defeated the Pelicans 118-104. Coach Redick was interviewed after the game.

Talking about Doncic’s struggling performance in the last two games, Redick said: “In the past two games, opponents have sent players at the best defensive team level to mark him. We must improve the way we pass the ball and ensure that he receives the ball in his comfort zone. We tried some specific Tactics, and tried random cuts and coordination, but failed to execute perfectly. "

In this campaign, Doncic made 6 of 16 shots, 3 of 8 three-pointers, and 9 of 13 free throws. He scored 24 points, 7 rebounds, 12 assists, 2 steals, and 1 block, with a plus-minus value of +30.
