The game was closer than what the final scoreboard indicated, especially in the 2nd half. The Lakers pulled in as little as within one point from the Jazz on one occasion. Once again, I saw the 2nd unit consisting of Kuzma, Clarkson, Hart, and Randle was effective yet again and was one of the reasons why the Lakers were still in the game. Another reason was that B.I. was looking to attack the basket. Again, this is a recurring theme that Ingram is at his best when he's looking to attack the basket. On a side note, Lonzo Ball knocked down three 3-pointers in this game. Despite the field goal percentage, that has gotta be encouraging to see as Ball finds his outside shot. The Lakers stayed competitive through 3 1/2 quarters. Utah had the 3-point game clicking and they moved the ball better than the Lakers down the stretch. Donovan Mitchell is turning out to be a stud for the Jazz. He showed out when the Lakers played the Jazz in the preseason and in regular season action, he did it again. Along with Ricky Rubio, Mitchell provided the Jazz the spark to seal the deal over the Lakers.
