During a break in Thursday's game and amid his scoring outburst in South Beach against the Miami Heat , Doncic was seen on camera looking exhausted on the bench, and also seemingly uttering a profane word to describe how tired he was during that moment.
With how Doncic played versus Miami, he had every right to feel and show that he was tired.
For one, it was the second night of a back-to-back set, and Doncic was also coming off a 40-point performance in Wednesday's road win against the Houston Rockets . After making the trip to Miami on a short turnaround and rest, the former NBA scoring champion somehow had enough energy to torch the Heat for a season-high 60 points.
Luka Doncic shot 18-for-30 from the field and hit nine of his 17 attempts from behind the arc, while recording seven rebounds, five steals and three assists in 38 minutes.

As for the Lakers, they stretched their winning streak to eight games and are undefeated through three contests on their current road trip, which will take them to Orlando on Saturday, when they face the Orlando Magic .
The Lakers are third in the Western Conference standings with a 45-25 record.
