With a roster that was further depleted because Isaiah Thomas is suffering from a sore hip, the Los Angeles Lakers put forth a valiant effort to defeat the Memphis Grizzlies, 100-93.
With it, the Lakers snapped their losing streak at four games and an overall seven-game skid at FedEx Forum. Prior to Saturday, their last win in Memphis came in 2013. It was accomplished despite being forced to an eight-man rotation and sluggish start to the game.
Brook Lopez began the night with the first basket of the night, only for the Grizzlies to respond with a 12-1 run.
