After Action Report
The Lakers snuck past the Raptors 112-111. Shots fell that probably shouldn't have, and the Lakers cashed in. Lakers' high-flyers tilted the pace and the rim; Lakers' defenders refused to give up clean looks.
What tipped it
- Lakers · Rim Wreckers A trio of high-flyers run, dunk, and tilt the pace.
- Lakers · Locker-Room Rift Tension in the locker room — poor ball movement and streaky play.
