Lakers' Home Drought Continues with Embarrassing Loss to Jazz

Looks like the Lakers are just homesick. Chris Kaman had another great outing as he was the top performer 25 points, 14 rebounds, 4 assists, and 3 blocks, but the Lakers couldn't find the groove at home as they fell to the Jazz (still feeling the emotions after upsetting the Miami Heat) 96-79. The Lakers lead the Jazz 16-27 at the end of the 1st quarter, but Utah stormed back in the 2nd outscoring the Lakers 32-10, pretty much setting the tone for the rest of the game. Only 2 other Lakers were in double figures besides Kaman as Wesley Johnson added 15 points on shooting 50% from the field and Shawne Williams added 11 points also shooting 50%. Kendall Marshall, after contributing efficiently since playing more minutes, had his worst outing this season scoring only 7 points and 7 assists and shooting a whopping 3-13 from the field.

Final Score: vs. Utah 96-79 [L]
