After getting a few days off to reset, the Los Angeles Lakers returned to the court on Friday night when they traveled north to take on the Minnesota Timberwolves.
The Lakers were blown out by Minnesota in the same building on their last road trip so were looking for revenge, although they had to do so without LeBron James in the lineup for the second straight game. Ultimately, the Lakers weren’t able to get the revenge they were looking for as they suffered another 97-87 loss to the Timberwolves.
Austin Reaves returned to the Lakers lineup after a five-game absence but looked rusty early.
