Nets hold on to beat shorthanded Lakers 111-108, snap 7-game losing streak
Briefly

The Brooklyn Nets secured a much-needed victory against the Los Angeles Lakers, ending their seven-game losing streak with a final score of 111-108. Head coach Jordi Fernandez expressed relief at the team's return to winning, highlighting the effort put in during tough times. Despite missing key players like LeBron James, the Lakers demonstrated strong defensive capabilities early on. However, a strong second quarter from the Nets, aided by Cam Johnson and Day'Ron Sharpe, allowed them to turn the game around. They now share ties in lottery odds with the Philadelphia 76ers.
"After losing seven in a row, it's just good to get back to winning," head coach Jordi Fernandez said. "It's a good reward for the work."
"A little bit more attention to detail on rotations and getting to those shooters," Cam Johnson said when asked about Brooklyn's defensive adjustments between the first and second quarters.
