His superstar teammate, LeBron James, naturally had nothing but good things to say about Doncic getting comfortable. The two are beginning to figure out how to play with one another, and James had a perfect football analogy to describe one particular aspect of their partnership— the full-court pass.

Less than two minutes into the Los Angeles Lakers' 123-100 win over the Denver Nuggets on Saturday, Luka Dončić grabbed a rebound, immediately turned his head, and without even dribbling threw a perfect full-court outlet pass that hit LeBron James in style for a slam.

Luka Doncic had 32 points and 10 rebounds, LeBron James scored 25 points and the visiting Los Angeles Lakers beat the Nuggets 123-100 on Saturday night to end Denver's nine-game winning streak.
