No Luka Doncic, no Kevin Durant and no Austin Reaves â in a game full of injuries, the Lakers got the better of the Rockets in Game 1.
This game was defined by defense, with the Lakers holding the Rockets to their lowest point total in over a month. It will be up to Houston to sink more shots offensively if it wants a chance at winning.
Luke Kennard led the way for Los Angeles in Game 1, scoring 27 points. DeAndre Ayton managed a double-double with 19 points. Each of the Lakers' new-look starting five scored in double figures, but their bench production was low, with just 13 points.
The Rockets did not have a scorer above 20 points against the Lakers, with Alperen Sengun leading the way at 19. With Kevin Durant out to a knee injury, the Rockets missed his firepower and struggled to find one dominant scoring option throughout the night.
