After Action Report
The Lakers survived the Grizzlies 102-100. The Grizzlies couldn't capitalize even when shots wouldn't fall for the Lakers. The Lakers owned the glass, generating extra possessions; fresh off a statement win, the Lakers stayed locked in. The Lakers locker room is humming, and it showed. The Lakers rotation plan paid off — leaning into the right spots created real lift. Style points be damned.
