The franchise star point guard surprised the entire basketball operations group by purchasing top-of-the-line Pedal Electric bikes for players, coaches, and staff — a haul totaling 103 gifts.

The premium all-wheel-drive models retail in the mid‑three-thousand dollar range, pushing the estimated tab for the Christmas delivery to well over $300,000 and highlighting just how invested Doncic is in his new locker room.

Head coach JJ Redick revealed the present after practice, describing the room’s reaction as pure joy, with veterans and younger players alike already talking about cruising down the coast on their new rides. For a Lakers team navigating the grind of a packed December schedule, the surprise acted as a timely morale boost.

A Pattern of Big‑Ticket Giving

This was not a one-off moment of generosity from the Slovenian star. During his years in Dallas, Doncic built a reputation for extravagant, tech-forward team gifts, previously handing out electric scooters, Mercedes-branded e‑bikes, and even electric go‑karts to teammates and staff. The shift to Los Angeles has not changed that instinct.

The Lakers have already witnessed his appetite for team bonding off the floor. Earlier in the season, he reportedly organized a group trip to the Porsche Driving Experience, giving teammates another shared storyline that extends beyond box scores and film sessions.

Inside the organization, those gestures are viewed as an extension of his leadership, signaling that everyone, from stars to back-of-bench staffers, is part of the same push toward contention.

Leadership That Resonates On and Off the Court

Doncic’s holiday splurge comes while he is firmly in the thick of the MVP conversation, leading the Lakers in scoring and assists and driving them to the top of the Western Conference standings. Night after night, he piles up massive lines, but the e‑bike gesture shows why his impact in Los Angeles is being framed as cultural as much as statistical.

Clips of the locker room celebration and the team receiving their gifts quickly circulated on social media, turning a private gesture into a viral symbol of the bond forming around the new face of the franchise. For a group with championship ambitions, having its best player set the tone with both his wallet and his play sends an unmistakable message about where this season is headed.
