Lakers suffer a deflating loss against the Grizzlies

After winning their first two games in Las Vegas, the Lakers ended their Summer League title hopes by losing to the Memphis Grizzlies, 100-69 on Friday night.

Heading into the game, L.A. still had a mathematical shot at making the Summer League playoffs but needed a 21-point win in order to qualify. They obviously fell well short of that goal.

With Max Christie ruled out, the Lakers’ offense was completely out of sync to start the game. Memphis jumped out to a 13-0 run and L.A. didn’t convert a field goal until there was 3:30 left in the first.
