He entered the game averaging a league-best 39.3 points, alongside 7.8 rebounds and 7.9 assists; the Lakers improved to 11-2 and extended their winning run to seven. Austin Reaves also left with a left heel injury, with X-rays negative and further imaging planned, while Collin Sexton needed stitches after a head collision.
