Deprived of LeBron James, the Lakers suffered the law of De’Aaron Fox last night. The hero of the evening, already decisive recently in Orlando, compiled 32 points at 13/19 shooting, 7 rebounds and 12 assists to guide his team to victory (114-120). It’s already his 7th game of the season with 26 points or more.
The leader was first illustrated in the pass before revving up in scoring at the very end of the first half in order to bring his team back into the game, with in particular a 3-pointer at the buzzer of the second quarter. His festival continued with 9 points and an assist late in the third quarter, but De’Aaron Fox saved the best for last with back-to-back clutch shots to annihilate the Lakers.
In his signature style, the point guard killed the game with his mid-range play, with two shots from 4-5 yards, a floater and a fadeaway from the free-throw line to force the decision 30 seconds from time. end (114-118). With these repeated decisive actions, he almost went for the game on his own.
“In addition to doing his job, he did it by getting us a win. That’s what’s exciting and that’s what I see him doing right now. On top of that and filling out the stat sheet, I saw him being a leader and taking responsibility at the right time. To have seen him progress so quickly, with the work he has done this summer in particular, is the part that excites me the most.”, welcomed Mike Brown after the meeting.
While the Kings smile again, the Lakers have reason to cry since they are now with the worst record in the league, tied with the Rockets.
