The Los Angeles Lakers again were without Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and dealt with sloppy stretches for a second consecutive game but rallied and completed an undefeated road trip with a 94-92 win over the Memphis Grizzlies.
Anthony Davis got off to a strong start, finishing in the lane and throwing a perfect lob to Kyle Kuzma to give the Lakers an early 8-3 lead. Defensively, L.A. was able to limit the Grizzlies to shots along the perimeter, while LeBron James regularly got into the paint for easy scores of his own.
Despite the strong start, turnovers began to pile up for the Lakers and led to an 11-2 Memphis run that gave them their first lead of the night.
