Is Luka Doncic playing on Christmas? Latest updates on Lakers star's status vs. Rockets | Sporting News The Sporting News brings you the latest updates on whether or not Lakers star Luka Doncic will play on Christmas Day against the Rockets.
DECEMBER 24, 2025 • SPORTINGNEWS.COM
Amen Thompson - Sniffs double-double in loss Thompson provided 19 points (7-10 FG, 5-8 FT), nine rebounds, five assists and two steals over 35 minutes during Tuesday's 128-108 loss to the Clippers.
Impact Thompson eventually took a seat in the fourth quarter once the game was out of hand, but the lopsided margin denied him one last rebound to hit a double-double. Thompson managed an accurate night of shooting despite an overall lack of backcourt success against the Clippers, especially on defense, where they had no luck defending James Harden.
DECEMBER 24, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Kevin Durant - Hits for 22 points in loss Durant registered 22 points (8-15 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), five rebounds, one assist and two blocks across 29 minutes during Tuesday's 128-108 loss to the Clippers.
Impact Durant usually turns it up when he faces James Harden, but his solid result wasn't enough to contain the Clippers' scoring onslaught. Durant's totals could have been higher, but the Rockets elected to sit him for the entire fourth quarter after the Clippers pulled ahead to a 16-point lead after three quarters. He'll hope to bounce back Thursday, when the Rockets take their first crack at the Lakers on Christmas Day.
DECEMBER 24, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Alperen Sengun - Records double-double in loss Sengun recorded 19 points (9-16 FG, 1-1 FT), 11 rebounds, seven assists, one block and two steals across 28 minutes during Tuesday's 128-108 loss to the Clippers.
Impact Sengun's frontcourt work was the only element where Houston held an advantage during the loss, as the big man took advantage of the Clippers' injury woes under the basket. Sengun now has 14 double-doubles out of 25 games played, which puts him in a tie for eighth in the league alongside Luka Doncic.
