The LA Lakers fans were unhappy with the team's social media admin for not posting Luka Doncic highlights on the social media page. After Doncic's 49-point game in a win against the Minnesota Timberwolves on Friday, Lakers fans came back to X to watch highlights, but seemingly didn't find enough highlights.

Reacting to the lack of highlights on the team's official page on X, one of the fans slammed the social media team for shifting focus to celebrities.

A fan noted that the Lakers' social media also didn't post highlights from the team's season-opener against the Golden State Warriors.

"They haven’t posted highlights from either of the first two games its weird tbh."

"I wonder if Magic Johnson watched the game. I’m waiting for his informative tweet."

Luka Doncic sends big warning to Timberwolves after Friday's win

Last season was the toughest time of Luka Doncic's basketball career. After being shockingly traded by the Dallas Mavericks, Doncic and the Lakers lost the first-round series against the Minnesota Timberwolves by 4-1. The Lakers star also had to deal with questions surrounding his fitness.

After three consecutive losses in last season's playoffs, the Lakers faced Minnesota for the first time in the 2025-26 season, and Doncic avenged the series loss to his satisfaction.

During the post-game press conference, Doncic said that after disappointing last season, he was ready to meet the Timberwolves' challenge every time they meet this season.

"We're gonna meet them two or three more times. It's gonna be a war every time we play them," he said.

The Timberwolves will host the Lakers later this month at Target Center.
