"Obviously, I'm not the best defender in the NBA, but I think this year, I really took a step forward," said Luka Doncic, who on Sunday became the first player to have five steals and draw three charges since player tracking began in 2013-14.
Luka Doncic scored 45 points Sunday in the Lakers' 131-125 win over the Raptors, but it was his defensive impact that drew the most praise.
