In what was supposed to be a marquee matchup of two of the NBA’s best teams, the Los Angeles Lakers were embarrassed by their rivals, the Boston Celtics.
The Lakers were blown out 139-107, playing their worst game of the 2019-20 NBA season. LeBron James recorded a double-double (15 points and 13 assists) while JaVale McGee led the team in scoring with 18 points to go along with three blocks.
Anthony Davis returned to the starting lineup after missing the past five games but was largely ineffective as he only managed to score nine points and grab four rebounds in 23 minutes of action.
