As the Los Angeles Lakers saw their road their last multi-game road trip of the season come to an end with a loss to the Detroit Pistons, it was obvious how fatigued the team was down the stretch.
Lonzo Ball played well, flirting with a triple-double of 15 points on 7-for-8 shooting, with 11 assists and eight rebounds. Fellow rookie Kyle Kuzma also had another strong night while starting out of position at small forward due to Brandon Ingram’s persistent groin injury, posting a double-double of 20 points and 11 rebounds in his Michigan homecoming.
