CHICAGO — Luka Doncic skipped, shimmied and shot. Doncic dazzled yet again with 46 points, 11 assists and seven rebounds in the Lakers’ 129-118 win over the Chicago Bulls Monday. Doncic’s second-half scoring barrage picked up after LeBron James scored 20 of his 24 points in the first half. He drained consecutive 3s, both spurred by Doncic passes, in the third quarter to help the Lakers hold off a Bulls comeback. The Lakers, after struggling with airline delays leaving Dallas on Saturday night, looked as if they would cruise comfortably to a win.
