Kyle Kuzma explodes as Lakers beat Magic in second scrimmage

The biggest news in this technically meaningless game, though, had nothing to do with how the Lakers played. Anthony Davis left the scrimmage in the first half after being poked in the eye and did not return. He looked effective in the 9 minutes he did play, finishing with a near double-double of 9 points and 10 rebounds in the game, but his status moving forward will be worth monitoring after the game.
