Lakers Fall To The Suns In Preseason | Malik Monk Continues To Improve | Melo Debuts With Lakers The Los Angeles Lakers faced the Phoenix Suns in Game 2 of the preseason but lost 117-105. The scoreline looks more respectable than the game actually was because the Suns breezed through L.A. after the first three quarters. Phoenix led 102-74, but L.A.’s bench won the fourth quarter 31-15 to cut into the deficit. LeBron James, Russell Westbrook, Trevor Ariza and Dwight Howard didn’t play, and Devin Booker didn’t play for Phoenix. Carmelo Anthony and Anthony Davis, however, did make appearances, with the former making his debut in the purple and gold. It wasn’t pretty for the Lakers until Talen Horton-Tucker and Malik Monk picked up the pace towards the end of the third quarter, even though it wasn’t enough. Here are three takeaways from the game: Continuity matters With the Lakers bringing in 11 new faces for the guaranteed roster, it was logical that the players wouldn’t gel immediately. That was extremely evident against the Suns, which deployed the same starting five from the playoffs a year ago. The Suns didn’t look like it missed a beat, even with the acquisitions of JaVale McGee and Landry Shamet. Finding chemistry fast will be a key aspect for any success the Lakers hope to have, as the difference in continuity and chemistry manifested. Having LeBron James and Russell Westbrook may accelerate the process, but it still needs to happen quickly. Small-ball lineups need to rebound better The Lakers were once again out-rebounded by the opposition. Phoenix won the rebound battle 52-40, and 12 of those came on the offensive glass for the Suns; for comparison’s sake, the Lakers managed just four. Rebounding plagued the Lakers against the Brooklyn Nets, but in this game, much of it came down to the small-ball lineups. With who L.A. had out, L.A. frequently deployed lineups comprising one big and four smaller players. DeAndre Jordan grabbed seven in 20 minutes, but he missed plenty as well by ball-watching. The smaller guards also have to do better at boxing out and following up on any missed shot. Malik Monk shines again After leading the Lakers with 15 points against the Nets, Malik Monk dropped a game-high 18 points on 7-of-11 shooting (4-of-7 from deep). The shooting guard battle is headed in Monk’s favor at this point, but he still has plenty of work to do on defense. Cameron Payne and others usually had no issue blowing past Monk on dribble-penetration drives, but Monk’s scoring prowess can’t be overlooked. So Z Nation, what do you think about the Lakers performance against the Suns in game 2 of the preseason??? And how are you like Malik Monk’s performance as of late???

Reaves finished with 11 points, 4 rebounds and 1 assist as well one of the Lakers’ most memorable late-game summer league moments since D’Angelo Russell’s icy veins in 2016. The Lakers got off to a fast start thanks to some quality play on both ends from Reaves as the recent two-way signee made his presence felt early once again with a quick five points. As Nicole Ganglani pointed out in our Vegas Summer League preview, Reaves’ defense and shot creation were key aspects of his time at the University of Oklahoma, but his scoring has also been consistent over his first three professional games. Though the Lakers led for much of the first half, the Suns turned things around in the third quarter thanks to some stellar play from Jalen Smith, a former lottery pick. Smith, who the Suns selected No. 10 overall in the 2020 draft, finished with a 15-point, 12-rebound double-double. Summer League veteran DeVontae Cacok also had a fantastic all-around performance, finishing with a team-high 13 points. Cacok also had seven rebounds, three assists and three steals. His ferocious on-ball defense and active hands caused problems for Phoenix all game, especially in crunch time as he played a huge role in holding the Suns to just one point over their final six possessions. To the delight of Lakers fans in the building, Mac McClung continued his crusade to become a fan favorite by hustling for every loose ball he saw and fearlessly driving into the paint. After a rough shooting start, McClung hit two jumpers with less than a minute to go to tie the game at 71. The Texas Tech product finished with 10 points and 4 rebounds. Several more familiar faces from both franchises were in attendance. Frank Vogel and much of his coaching staff, including Phil Handy, Mike Penberthy and the recently hired David Fizdale showed up for the Lakers, as did Talen Horton-Tucker. On the Suns’ side, Chris Paul, Cameron Payne, Mikal Bridges and newly crowned gold medalist Devin Booker showed up to support their young teammates, as did Suns president of basketball operations and longtime LeBron James friend James Jones. The Lakers will be back in action in Vegas on Wednesday against the Knicks. For more Lakers talk, subscribe to the Silver Screen and Roll podcast feed on iTunes, Spotify, Stitcher or Google Podcasts.
