Austin Reaves came next with 28 points and eight rebounds while Dalton Knecht put up 10 points and five rebounds. Meanwhile, Gabe Vincent provided six points.

Los Angeles fell to 40-24 on the season, going down to fourth place in the Western Conference standings. They are even with the Houston Rockets, trailing the Denver Nuggets and Memphis Grizzlies by one game.

Following Thursday’s loss to the Bucks, the Lakers will look to rebound in their next road matchup. They face the Denver Nuggets on March 14 at 9:30 p.m. ET.
