After Action Report
The Lakers fended off the Suns 109-100. Every possession went the Lakers way. The Lakers came in with something to prove after a loss; Lakers' Lockdown identity stifled the opposing offense. Early returns: the Lakers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Style points be damned.
What tipped it
- Suns · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
