Lucas Scott

Lucas Eugene Scott is a fictional character and the main protagonist from The WB/CW television series One Tree Hill created by Mark Schwahn and portrayed by Chad Michael Murray. Lucas is a talented basketball player and writer and the paternal half-brother of Nathan Scott. The relationship between the two of them is one of the show’s foundations: from being initially estranged and rivals, their dynamic gradually shifts over the course of the series as they set their differences aside and their bond becomes increasingly stronger, turning them into true companions and best friends first and then growing to the point that they eventually begin to truly consider themselves brothers. While striving for his dreams, Lucas also has to deal with his tumultuous relationship with his father, Dan Scott, and is initially the centre of a love triangle designed between him and female leads Peyton Sawyer, whom he’s actually loved since childhood, and Brooke Davis. Ultimately, Peyton turns out to be the one for him, while the relationship between the two of them has become another cornerstone of the show. Haley James, the third female lead and Nathan’s eventual wife, is his best friend since childhood.
