After Action Report

The Lakers outlasted the Jazz 108-99. Lakers torched the Jazz on the offensive end. Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; fresh off a statement win, the Lakers stayed locked in. The Lakers bench chemistry carried them. Survive-and-advance type win.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
  • Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Lakers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
  • Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
