LAL’s lead is 100-96 after 3 Q’s, despite THT’s near-miss at the buzzer after Morris’ football pass found him.
THT has 19 points (8 of 14 FG’s) and 9 assists; Drummond has 20 points and 10 boards. LAL hasn’t been very impactful defensively, w/HOU shooting 52.3% (13 made 3’s).
Lakers vs Rockets Quarter 3
Drummond has punished HOU’s small frontline all night, now up to points with 10 boards and 2 assists.

LAL hold an 82-75 lead midway through the 3rd Q after an and-1 (missed FT) from Kuzma followed Drummond’s 9th FG.
LAL takes a 59-53 lead into halftime. They got whatever shots they wanted, for the most part, hitting 55.3% FG’s against an inexperienced Rockets squad.

Rockets have 1 2nd rounder (K. Thomas) and 4 undrafted guys on the floor.
After allowing HOU to start 6 for 6, LAL picked it up defensively, and the Rockets made just 4 of their next 16 FG’s, as LAL shot 14 for 24 to take a 34-26 lead out of the 1st.
Lakers vs Rockets Quarter 1
14-0 LAL run here.
Better play from LAL after a slow start, as they got 3 straight stops, then hit 3 straight shots on the other end, a 7-0 run tying things up at 16.

And again, this is a good chance for Morris to find a rhythm, and he’s 2 for 3 with a 3 to cap the run.

In Houston’s last 7 games, they’ve allowed: 136, 113, 122, 135, 141, 124, and 140 points.
It’s all tied at 7 after 2 minutes here as things get underway.
Lakers vs Rockets Starting 5 and Pre-Game Updates
Houston starters: D.J. Augustin, Khyri Thomas, Jae’Sean Tate, Kenyon Martin Jr., and Kelly Olynyk.
Lakers starters tonight: THT, KCP, Matthews, Morris, and Drummond.
LeBron James said during the banner drop presentation that “The road to back-to-back starts in about a week,” which AD echoed when he spoke moments later. Of course, that’s been their only goal all season.
Kuzma will come off the bench, and he’ll have to handle some PG/playmaking duties in the absence of LeBron, AD, Schroder, and Caruso.
In addition to LeBron, AD, and Schroder, Alex Caruso is out, once again leaving extremely shorthanded from a playmaking standpoint.
Frank Vogel, speaking about Anthony Davis (left adductor tightness), said they “definitely consider it minor.”
Said they didn’t think it would be smart to play him on the 2nd night of a B2B.
Anthony Davis (left adductor tightness) and LeBron James (right ankle sprain) have been officially ruled out for tonight’s game. We’ll get a bit more info from Frank Vogel in a few minutes.
