The Los Angeles Lakers have been a dominant home team to begin the 2024-25 season and they looked to keep their spotless record when they played host to the Memphis Grizzlies.
The Lakers had some extra motivation heading into the matchup as they lost to the Grizzlies during their road trip, and they had an excellent opportunity to exact revenge as Ja Morant was sidelined due to a hip injury.
Even though they were shorthanded, Memphis gave Los Angeles everything they could handle as they clawed and scraped on both ends of the floor. The Grizzlies even held a lead in the second half, but the Lakers were able to respond and earned 128-123 victory to remain undefeated at home.
