LeBron James Praises Lakers’ Ball Movement Against Raptors

After suffering their first two-game losing streak of the season, LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers got back on track on Friday night with a 131-125 road win over the Toronto Raptors.

The 131 points tied a season-high for the Lakers, who jumped out to a 26-point lead in the first half before slipping defensively in the second half to let the Raptors back in it.

Overall though, it was the Lakers’ best offensive performance of the young season and a big reason for that was their ball movement. The Lakers had 29 assists on 42 made field goes with James leading the way with 10.
