Los Angeles Lakers guard Luka Doncic struggled in his team's Game 3 loss to the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday night. While he stuffed the stat sheet with 17 points, seven rebounds and eight assists, the Slovenian guard shot just 6-for-16 from the field. The Lakers were also outscored by 16 points in his 40 minutes of action.

There's someone out there confident enough to wager $620,000 on the Minnesota Timberwolves to beat the Los Angeles Lakers in Game 3 of their first-round Western Conference playoff series Friday at Target Center in Minneapolis. But that bet might leave some superstitious Timberwolves fans sweating.

One of the questions for the Timberwolves in this playoff series against the Lakers was how would they respond in a tight game against two stars in LeBron James and Luka Doncic who have thrived in those situations.
