The Lakers displayed great effort and intensity in the final quarter of this game. Almost all the players contributed massively to mount a great comeback against the Rockets. The Lakers had a 28-16 advantage in the final quarter alone.

LeBron James led the Lakers with 29 points, 11 boards and 6 assists. Brandon Ingram continued his good displays, finishing with 27 points and 13 rebounds on 50% shooting from the floor. The new addition, Reggie Bullock had a great game too. He hit a clutch three in the final minutes to build the lead and finished the match with 14 points on 4-8 shooting from the 3PT line.

The Lakers will be encouraged by the energy displayed by the young core in this match. By no means was this a perfect game for the team, but the players were locked in and wanted the win very badly.
