With the Lakers showing real signs of life through major adversity following the disastrous 2-10 start, fans (and players, surely) have been hoping the front office would come through with some help for a roster of game-but-limited guys? For LeBron James, who has been balling out to keep the team afloat in the absence of Anthony Davis? Especially now that Davis could be back over the next week or so? Monday, the Lakers pulled the trigger, reportedly agreeing to send Kendrick Nunn and three...
The Lakers pick up a player at a position of need, in an intriguing move for this season and beyond.
Thomas Bryant and Dennis Schröder have huge games as well as the Lakers score a big win
They always say that basketball is a game of runs. The Lakers and Blazers took that to some serious extremes Sunday night in Portland. The Lakers got out to an 18-4 lead, and were then outscored 57-28 over the rest of the half, including 45-13 in the second quarter, the worst Q2 point differential in franchise history.
