Despite playing mainly backup players, the Lakers took care of the Sacramento Kings 109-101 to win their second preseason game.
D'Angelo Russell continues to shine, scoring 21 points with eight assists in his 21 minutes of play. This was the first preseason game where D-Lo played during the second half as well.
Rui Hachimura also remained impressive starting tonight, scoring 13 points on 50% shooting and the Lakers' latest addition Gabe Vincent impressed scoring 18 points and going 4-8 from three.
The Lakers are now halfway done with the preseason schedule.
With no LeBron James, Anthony Davis, Austin Reaves, or Cam Reddish available for this game, it's clear this was a game to play backups compared to their last matchup against the Brooklyn Nets, which felt much more like a dress rehearsal for the regular season.
