On November 4th, Beijing time, the Lakers defeated the Nets 124-112 at home. The Lakers (4-5) dominated the game for almost the entire duration. Brook Lopez scored 34 points and grabbed 10 rebounds, hitting 6 out of 9 three-point attempts; rookie Kyle Kuzma contributed 21 points and 13 rebounds. Ingram had 18 points and 10 rebounds, while \"Big Man\" Lonzo Ball managed only 6 points, 7 assists, and 5 rebounds on 15 attempts. Jordan Clarkson, who came in as a substitute, scored 19 points. The Nets (3-6) suffered four consecutive losses. Hollis Jefferson scored 21 points, DeAndre Russell had 17 points, 7 rebounds, and 7 assists, Demar Carroll contributed 11 points and 8 rebounds, while Allen Crabbe, who came off the bench, scored 25 points.
34 points and 10 rebounds – that’s an outstanding performance, not in the CBA but in the NBA. The Lakers are going to have a tough time these next couple of years; without star players to back them up, it will be difficult for them to achieve good results in the West.
