Lakers Dominate Clippers in Decisive Victory at Intuit Dome
The Los Angeles Lakers secured a decisive 122-97 victory over the Los Angeles Clippers on Tuesday night at Intuit Dome in Inglewood, California. The win marked the Lakers’ first triumph at their crosstown rivals’ new arena and extended their strong form, finishing a six-game road trip with five wins. Despite the absence of star big man Anthony Davis due to injury, the Lakers delivered an impressive performance, highlighted by a dominant first quarter where they scored 45 points—their highest in any period this season.
The Lakers were led by a balanced scoring effort, with two players contributing 20 points each, while the team shot 55% from the field and made 18 three-pointers at a 48% clip. The Clippers, on the other hand, struggled offensively, with their top stars combining for just 18 points and shooting poorly from the field. The loss dropped the Clippers to 28-22, two games behind the Lakers (29-19) in the Western Conference standings.
The Lakers’ starting lineup, which included Jaxson Hayes, Austin Reaves, and Rui Hachimura, struggled defensively, posting a net rating of -7.9. However, bench units featuring Shake Milton and Dalton Knecht proved effective, with one lineup registering a net rating of 46.7 in eight minutes of play. The Lakers’ ability to adapt without Davis and their strong defensive effort were key factors in the win.
The Lakers will host the Golden State Warriors on Thursday, while the Clippers will face the Indiana Pacers on the same night.
