NBA Finals Recap: Lakes Fend Off Undermanned Heat In Game 2

It was not the same dominant performance that’s been seen at times during the playoffs, but the Los Angeles Lakers remained undefeated in their Black Mamba City Edition jerseys, holding off the Miami Heat for a 124-114 win in Game 2 of the NBA Finals.

Myers Leonard and Tyler Herro got the start in place of Bam Adebayo and Goran Dragic, and each buried a 3-pointer early into the game. However, the Lakers immediately began to dominate the paint with Dwight Howard and Anthony Davis feasting on the smaller Heat front court.

Kyle Kuzma got off to a quick start off the bench, nailing a three from the top of the key and finishing a layup off a nice cut.
