After Action Report

The Warriors stunned the Lakers 118-115 in overtime. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Warriors cashed in. Warriors' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; the Warriors owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Add it to the list of nights the favorite forgot to show up.

What tipped it

  • Warriors · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Warriors · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Warriors · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Lakers · Catching Fire Riding a 4+ game winning streak — confidence is high.
  • Lakers · Tight-Knit Locker-room chemistry is humming — extra trust on every possession.
