After Action Report
The Lakers snuck past the Trail Blazers 93-89. The Trail Blazers couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Lakers. Fresh off a statement win, the Lakers stayed locked in; the Lakers bent the defense out of shape from deep. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
- Trail Blazers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
