After leading by as many as 16 points in the first half, nothing was more predictable than this team giving up an 11-2 run to begin the third quarter. But thanks to Davis' impressive defense alongside Prince's 18 points off the bench and Reaves turning it up midway through the third quarter, L.A. managed to put together a 16-0 run to pull the game away.
It's an encouraging sign for the purple and gold heading into the Playoffs. Despite 17 turnovers and allowing 11 second-chance opportunities, it was nice to see this Lakers team find a way to still win, even if a couple of things weren't going their way.
What the Lakers will most likely focus on entering Sunday's primetime game against the Wolves is their goal to extend their winning streak to five and make a statement against a potential first round opponent in the playoffs.
