After Action Report

The Lakers outlasted the Jazz 109-103. Lakers controlled the tempo from tip to buzzer. Second-chance points piled up for the Lakers; you could feel the revenge motivation from the Lakers. The Lakers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
