The Los Angeles Lakers returned to the court on Sunday night, hosting the Toronto Raptors in what was a rematch from last week’s contest when L.A. held on for a win.
The Lakers were looking to stay undefeated at home and improve to 6-4 on the young season and they were able to do exactly that with a 123-103 win.
Anthony Davis and Rui Hachimura scored the first nine points for the Lakers as the rest of the starters struggled and the Raptors jumped out to a 15-9 lead after a three-point play by R.J. Barrett.
After JJ Redick called a timeout, Austin Reaves banked in a triple and then Davis continued to attack the basket to get the Lakers back within one.
