The Lakers ended the trip about the opposite it started.
The Lakers handed the Hornets only their eight loss of the season as they get ready to face the Celtics on Thursday.
The Lakers didn’t shoot particularly well, but got it done on defense as the Hornets were held to just 42% shooting. The Lakers also took care of the ball with only 11 turnovers. Kobe finally moved the ball in the offense as he took just 18 shots, had 4 assits, and 0 turnovers.
It had been awhile since the Lakers jumped out to a giant lead on a team and kept that lead double figures for the entire game.
Now, the bests of the night…
