Lakers forward LeBron James drives to the basket against New Orleans Pelicans center Yves Missi in the second half of an NBA basketball game in New Orleans, Saturday, Nov. 16, 2024. The Lakers won 104-99. NEW ORLEANS — One night after the Lakers were clicking on all cylinders in their most impressive performance away from Crypto.com Arena, they looked like a team struggling to find answers on Saturday night against the New Orleans Pelicans.
A team struggling to keep the Pelicans, who were also shorthanded, off the offensive glass for significant parts of Saturday. And one night after playing a more off-ball role in crunch time, James controlled the game late, knocking down another 3 out of a pick and roll to put the Lakers up 101-97 with 37 seconds left.
The Lakers will have a couple of days off before kicking off a three-game homestand with an NBA Cup Group Play matchup against the Utah Jazz on Tuesday at Crypto.com Arena.
