The Los Angeles Lakers successfully bounced back from their loss against the Dallas Mavericks and beat the Denver Nuggets, 105-96.
The Nuggets scored the first five points of the game as they looked to attack early, but the Lakers responded with a 10-0 run keyed by several LeBron James-led drives to the basket. Los Angeles also did a good job defensively, running Denver off the three-point line and clearing the defensive boards.
Nikola Jokic threw some dimes to get the Nuggets offense going, but Troy Daniels responded with a pair of threes to help extend the Lakers lead.
