Seven points and four boards for Jaxson Hayes in the 4th Q, helping to fill in for the absent AD.
Austin Reaves, meanwhile, has 19 of his 24 points in the 2nd half, and has been attacking Toronto’s guards off the dribble.
Lakers lead 114-100 with 2:31 to play. – 12:01 AM

Davis had 22 points, 4 boards, 3 assists and 2 blocks plus a steal in his 26 minutes.
The Lakers were down by 3 when AD went out (5:16 in the 3rd), but have rallied around the flag since, and lead 103-89 with 7:41 to play after Russell’s 3-pointer. – 11:49 PM

55-53 at half after Russell hits tough 3 at horn for LA. Raptors controlled most of half but hurting themselves with 12 TOs (to Lakers 4). Lakers at line 13 times to Raps 7, but 10 of those are Anthony Davis, and there could have been more. AD has 19 Barrett with 13 for Raps. – 10:43 PM

Dave McMenamin: JJ Redick on Anthony Davis: “He was having trouble seeing.” He didn’t have an update on Davis’ left eye injury beyond that. -via Twitter @mcten / November 11, 2024
Bronny James made his debut with his other team on Saturday, suiting up for the G League South Bay Lakers’ season opener in front of a sold-out crowd. Some of those fans included his father LeBron, the rest of their family and teammate Anthony Davis. As for James’ performance against the Salt Lake City Stars, it was a quiet night. The second-round pick finished with six points on 2-of-9 shooting (0-for-4 from 3-point range) with four assists, three rebounds and five turnovers. He was a minus-one in a 110-96 South Bay win. -via Yahoo! Sports / November 9, 2024
