Lakers: D-Fenders demolish Pacers affiliate in home opener

The D-Fenders are starting off their young season with a bang! They took on the Indiana Pacers affiliate the Iowa Energy, in their home opener in front of a packed crowd and head coach Colby Karl’s dad and legendary NBA coach George Karl.

The D-Fenders pulled through with flying colors and demolished the Energy 127-98. The elder Karl switched places with his son. Coby told us in a post game interview that he gave his suit to his dad while he got ready for interviews. When he was growing up, it was the other way around.
