Lakers Aim to Carry Momentum From Warriors Win

After falling by 29 to Atlanta on Friday, Lakers head coach Byron Scott gave his team some strong feedback while preparing for Sunday's meeting with the defending-champion Golden State Warriors.

“I really questioned if they wanted to really win,” head coach Byron Scott said at Monday's practice. “Because the film session didn’t show me that. I think just questioning their integrity about how they go about their business was probably enough.”

But the Lakers showed Scott a lot in their matchup against Golden State, not only defeating the then 55-5 Warriors, but dismantling them 112-95.

“We kind of just played at a high level yesterday,” said Jordan Clarkson, who led all players with 25 points.
