Anthony Davis and D'Angelo Russell were the two leaders of the team to get the win against the Orlando Magic. The game was close and it took everything from the purple and gold to get the victory as they played the day before going into overtime against Sacramento.

The Lakers now are 2-2 for the start of the season and while chemistry hasn't been great, the team is slowing going there despite some pointed mistakes made by coach Darvin Ham in the first four games of the campaign.

The good news is that Anthony Davis had a monstrous night scoring 26 points, having 19 rebounds, 5 assists, 1 steal, and three blocks. But the spotlight was taken by the point guard D'Angelo Russell who had an outstanding night.

With 36 minutes of playtime, D'Angelo Russell led the team to get the win by scoring 28 points, having 2 rebounds, 8 assists, 1 steal, and one block. Dlo is back and should be here to stay.

Max Christie continues to stay on the bench despite Rui Hachimura's absence

In what has to do with a move that fans don't understand, coach Darvin Ham has not used Max Christie for the fourth game in a row, especially after Rui Hachimura was left out.
