Lakers Stumped by Heat at California Classic

SACRAMENTO — Moe Wagner isn’t used to losing. In fact, last year his Michigan squad fell just eight times during its run to the NCAA championship game.

So getting “punched in the mouth” in an 89-74 loss to the Miami Heat at the California Classic wasn’t a ton of fun.

“It sucks,” Wagner said. “Yesterday, yeah we played a good game and competed but we lost. Today, same thing. I hate that stuff.”

After dropping 23 points the night before, Wagner struggled alongside the majority of his teammates.
