After Action Report

The Spurs edged the Lakers 98-90. Spurs' starting five clicked while the Lakers looked disjointed. Shots just aren't falling for the Spurs lately; Spurs' Run-and-Gun identity dictated the tempo. Whispers of a Lakers locker-room rift aren't helping.

What tipped it

  • Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
  • Lakers · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
  • Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
  • Spurs · Ice Cold On a 4+ game losing streak — shots aren't falling.
