Lakers vs. OKC

The Los Angeles Lakers have a must-win game tonight vs. the Oklahoma City Thunder, at the end of the first half things are close for both teams as the game is tied 50-50 but it could be better if coach Ham had made the right decision.

Anthony Davis has 12 points, 8 rebounds, and 4 assists. D’Angelo Russell has 12 points. Christian Wood has 9 points. LeBron has 8 points. With Taurean Prince defending SGA isn’t working. Both teams are shooting below 30% on 3s.

Darvin Ham's obsession with starting Taurean Prince and giving him more playing time over Jarred Vanderbilt is affecting the team as Shai has done with Prince whatever he wants on the court.

Moments before the game, Ham revealed he was going to use last season's starting five but things changed and Prince became the starter to guard SGA which has ultimately failed.

The best player of tonight's game is from the OKC Thunder

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander has been dominating as he has scored 16 points with 3, rebounds, 1 assist, and one block. Meanwhile, the best Lakers of the night so far are Anthony Davis with D'Angelo Russell as both scored 12 points.
