Lakers' Tough Sledding Continues with Loss to Magic

*Stats courtesy of NBA.com and Yahoo Sports*

The Lakers blew big leads the last two games. In tonight's game, it looked like they were beaten soundly by the Magic. It's brutal these last few games, but this is part of the growing pains of this young Lakers squad. Luol Deng was the Lakers' top performer, recording a double-double of 11 points and 10 rebounds to go with 3 assists and 1 block in the 90-109 loss to the Magic. I'm starting to think that the Lakers have not won a game yet this season when Deng has an above average game. D'Angelo Russell lead all scorers in the starting lineup with 15 points. Jordan Clarkson lead the bench with 18 points and 5 rebounds, but struggled handling the ball committing 5 turnovers. Lou Williams followed with 13 points despite a woeful 3-11 shooting night.

Final Score: @ Orlando 90-109 [L]
