LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers made their 2019-20 NBA season home opener a successful one as they cruised past the Utah Jazz to earn their first win.
The Lakers clearly made it an effort to clean up their defense after their Opening Night loss to the Los Angeles Clippers as they appeared more focused and prepared to take on a revamped Jazz team. Los Angeles did a great job of guarding the point of attack and making the necessary rotations, forcing plenty of contested shots and turnovers.
James led the way for the purple and gold as he turned in a vintage performance, putting up 32 points, 10 assists, and seven rebounds in 32 minutes of action.
