Los Angeles Lakers’ Perfect Start Ended Last Night

The Lakers kicked off the campaign with a 127-105 blowout of Golden State, and built on that over the next couple of games.
They downed the LA Clippers at home, 125-117, before heading out on the road for the first time to beat Utah 132-123.
Los Angeles failed to make it to 4-0 though, as they suffered a 136-129 home defeat to Portland last night.
Luka Doncic had another monster night despite the loss, as he racked up 41 points to go along with five rebounds and nine assists.
LA Clippers 1-2 After Back-To-Back Losses
LA return home on the back of a credible effort at Oklahoma City, but that did not stop them from dropping to 1-2 on the season.
The Clippers opened the campaign at home to Sacramento, and ran out convincing winners as they blew out the Kings, 121-96.
They failed to follow that up though, as they dropped their next two games as the road team.
LA were beaten 125-117 by the Los Angeles Lakers, before heading to OKC for a 108-101 loss to the Thunder.
No less than seven players hit double digits in scoring, but no player scored more than 16 points in the defeat.
Verdict
Los Angeles are the healthier team and have made a stronger start to the season.
They also have Luka Doncic – who has been in devastating form over the past couple of games – so we expect the Lakers to get back on track here.
