Leonard puts up 25 as the Raptors bounce back against listless Lakers Globe_Sports
L.A. Lakers forward LeBron James loses his footing after being fouled by Toronto Raptors forward Malcolm Miller during a game in Toronto on March 14, 2019.A Toronto Raptors team without Kyle Lowry bounced back from Monday’s ugly loss to the lowly Cleveland Cavaliers by toppling LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers, 111-98 Thursday night.
This humdrum Lakers squad was not what most imagined would evolve when James signed in Los Angeles during free agency. The team visiting Toronto on Thursday was bland and injury-depleted, playing without Lonzo Ball, Tyson Chandler, Brandon Ingram and Lance Stephenson. This squad consisted of James, Rajon Rondo, and a collection of reserves and G-Leaguers on two-way contracts.
James, who recently passed Michael Jordan for fourth place on the NBA’s career scoring list, had faced the Raptors 66 times throughout his career going into Thursday’s game. In those games – 52 in the regular season and 14 in the playoffs – he had a potent 53-13 record.
