#2 Lakers shooting struggles
Before the match, the Lakers were a top 10 3PT shooting team and it looked like they had addressed their shooting concerns. But they were totally exposed against the Nuggets shooting just 5-32 from the 3PT line.
LeBron James had a very off game according to his standards. He never looked settled in the match and finished with just 14 points and 2 assists, way below his season averages. He shot 0-4 from the 3PT line.
The entire Lakers starters went for just 2-16 from beyond the arc which further testifies their struggle in the match. Josh Hart has also been struggling in recent matches after being the best three-point shooter for the team in the early parts of the season.
The Lakers need to improve on their outside shooting. LeBron James will get back his touch in the next match but the others seriously need to step up and provide support to James.
Guess the Lakers players!
