Los Angeles Lakers Extend Win Streak with Victory Over Utah Jazz
The Los Angeles Lakers continued their impressive run, extending their win streak to six games with a 124-118 victory over the Utah Jazz on Tuesday, November 19.
LeBron James played a pivotal role in the win, contributing 26 points, two rebounds, and 12 assists across 34 minutes. His performance was complemented by Anthony Davis, who recorded a double-double with 26 points, 14 rebounds, six assists, and two steals in the same amount of time on the court.
Dalton Knecht was another standout, tying the rookie record for most three-pointers made in a single game with nine. He scored a career-high 37 points, along with five rebounds and one steal in 38 minutes. Knecht’s performance has been particularly notable in the absence of Rui Hachimura due to an ankle injury.
The Lakers are now 10-4 in the season, placing them second in the Western Pacific standings behind the Golden State Warriors. Their next game is against the Orlando Magic, although they will be without Bronny James, who is sidelined with a right heel contusion.
