After Action Report

The Lakers snuck past the Bobcats 109-107. The Bobcats couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Lakers. Lakers' veteran poise eliminated the costly mistakes. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. Early returns: the Lakers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight. Ugly, but it counts the same in the standings.

What tipped it

  • Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
  • Bobcats · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
