洛杉磯湖人開季遭遇傷兵打擊。當家後衛 Luka Dončić 因左手手指扭傷與左小腿挫傷，球團確認將至少休兵一週，並於下週重新評估狀況。更讓人扼腕的是，這名五度入選明星賽的後衛才剛打出爆炸開局，開季前兩戰分別攻下 43 分與 49 分，合計 92 分正式改寫隊史開季前兩戰得分紀錄，連 Jerry West 塵封 56 年的數據也被他踩過去。期間 Dončić 還繳出場均 11.5 籃板、8.5 助攻，完全是 MVP 等級的首週表現。

更雪上加霜的是，湖人目前同時缺少 LeBron James，他因坐骨神經痛預計要到 11 月中才望歸隊。也就是說球季初段的這段魔鬼賽程，湖人將在沒有兩大核心的狀況下硬撐。預計 Austin Reaves 將被拉上控球位置，Jake LaRavia、Marcus Smart 與 Jarred Vanderbilt 等人有機會遞補先發空缺。
