LOS ANGELES – For nearly a month, the Lakers learned all types of lessons on how to maximize their potential. In nearly a week, the Lakers have shown promising signs they can accelerate their growth.
The Lakers secured a 119-108 victory over the Phoenix Suns on Sunday at Staples Center, providing all sorts of implications that suggest this potentially rebuilding season could actually morph into a competitive one.
Instead of validating concerns Coach Luke Walton had about complacency from an upset win against Golden State on Friday, the Lakers (4-3) secured a three-game winning streak.
