After Action Report
The Rockets outlasted the Lakers 117-110. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Rockets cashed in. Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Lakers came in with something to prove after a loss.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
