Doncic gifted about 103 high-end electric bikes to Lakers players, coaches, and staff to boost morale and show appreciation before the Christmas Day game, Redick said.

- Having signed a three-year extension worth more than $165 million, Doncic continues his pattern of team gifts and philanthropy, including the Porsche Driving Experience and a $500,000 donation to Los Angeles wildfire recovery.
- Coach JJ Redick said the count was around 103 and described the bikes as high-end, with players receiving Pedal All-Wheel Drive S listed at $3,350 and staff Pedal H/T at $2,250, totaling over $340,000.
- Players and staff were seen using the bikes after Tuesday's practice, and Redick said it reinforced Doncic's leadership and team culture, impacting morale.
