After Action Report
In Los Angeles, the Magic held off the Lakers 117-109. Magic torched the Lakers on the offensive end. Lakers' skid keeps deepening — heads down on both ends; Lakers' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. Whispers of a Lakers locker-room rift aren't helping.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Crashing An 8+ game losing skid — heads are down, both ends suffer.
- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
