Locked On NBA – Daily Podcast On The National Basketball Association

Luka Dončić powers the Los Angeles Lakers past Victor Wembanyama and the Spurs with a 35-point masterclass, cementing himself as an offensive force and turning up the heat on defense. With LeBron James and Austin Reaves sidelined, the Lakers roll out unconventional lineups, relying on Dončić's brilliance to outmaneuver a frustrated Spurs squad. Is this the best version of Luka we’ve seen yet, and does it push the Lakers higher in the Western Conference race? Meanwhile, Anthony Edwards and Darius Garland spark their teams with surprising injury returns, as the New York Knicks dominate with bench depth and the Cleveland Cavaliers’ offense clicks behind Donovan Mitchell’s 46-point outburst. The episode also spotlights the Oklahoma City Thunder’s first loss, the Portland Trail Blazers’ resurgence, and pivotal matchups across the league—including Miami’s worries after Bam Adebayo’s injury and the Dallas Mavericks’ disappointing stumble. Wes Goldberg and Tony East break down all the action and what it means for NBA contenders moving forward.
