Luka Doncic scored 42 points and handed out 12 assists in the Lakers’ 127-113 win over the Cavaliers on March 31, lifting his March total to 600 points. ESPN says he became only the second player ever to reach 600 points in a March, while the Lakers finished the month 15-2.
Luka Doncic finished March in rare company.
He scored 42 points and added 12 assists in the Lakers’ 127-113 win over the Cavaliers on March 31, a performance that pushed his March total to 600 points, according to ESPN. That made him only the second player ever to reach 600 points in a March and one of just 10 players to score 600 in any month.
The outburst capped a remarkable stretch for Doncic and for Los Angeles. The Lakers went 15-2 in March, a run that helped them close the month with momentum.
NBA.com’s player page and game news also backed up the broader scoring surge, including a 60-point game against Miami on March 20 and the 42-point night against Cleveland.
The Cavaliers game was the latest example of Doncic carrying the offense in a month defined by big scoring nights and steady production. With March over, his total stood at 600 points, a mark that places the run among the most prolific monthly scoring bursts in league history.
