When the Lakers lose, they lose loud. Monday in Sacramento, though, was a screamer. Playing a team tied for the worst in the Western Conference, the Lakers feel behind early, and couldn't really threaten to complete the comeback. Final score, 124-112. Statistically, the Kings benefitted from a shockingly good shooting night from the perimeter, making 17-26 (65%). DeMar DeRozan, who didn't take a three, was 14-19 from the floor. Meanwhile, the Lakers were a 1.5 man band. Luka Dončić kept them afloat for a while, and finished with 42 points on a very efficient 16-25. LeBron James chipped in 22. But fellow starters Marcus Smart and Jake LaRavia combined for three points. Jarred Vanderbilt, in 26 minutes off the bench, had a goose egg. Bronny James, who checked in with 1:53 remaining, had more points than all three of them combined. But you can't win NBA games shooting the way that the Lakers shoot. 22% from three, which was actually boosted by Bronny's 2-2 at the end of the game. They are a bad, bad, bad shooting team, and it's getting harder for them to paper over the problems. Gold stars for the centers Monday. Both Jaxson Hayes (12 points, four offensive rebounds) and Deandre Ayton (13 rebounds, two blocks) showed up and contributed. But after that? Maybe you give Gabe Vincent a nod for a couple second half triples? But with a Hawks team that has been playing a little better of late (three straight wins) coming to town Tuesday, the Lakers really couldn't afford to give this one away, and they most certainly did. HOSTS: Andy and Brian Kamenetzky SEGMENT 1: A terrible, terrible loss in Sacramento. SEGMENT 2: No supporting cast. SEGMENT 3: The bad offense creates bad defense.
