After Action Report
The Lakers squeaked past the Cavaliers 87-82. Ugly basketball, but the Lakers did just enough. The Lakers came in with something to prove after a loss; fresh off a statement win, the Cavaliers stayed locked in. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Bouncing Back A winning team just got tripped up — expect a response.
- Cavaliers · Statement Win Last time out, a 20+ point beating sent a message.
