After Action Report

The Lakers outlasted the Jazz 111-104. The better team simply showed up tonight. Lakers' Rim Wreckers got loose for easy buckets in transition; the Jazz owned the glass, generating extra possessions. Early returns: the Lakers per-player utilization choices fit the identity tonight.

What tipped it

  • Jazz · Glass Eaters Crashing the boards generates extra possessions and second-chance buckets.
  • Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
