Austin Reaves and Dennis Schroder provided big plays in key moments Tuesday during the Lakers' overtime victory against Utah. Here's how they did it.
LeBron James has nine of his 37 points in overtime as the Lakers beat Utah for their their fourth consecutive win to tie Clippers with a 41-38 record.“It’s important for our backcourt to be complementary to one another, especially when you got DLo out,” said James, who scored the game-winning layup in overtime to finish with 37 points, six assists and five rebounds in 38:28.
Reaves and Schroder played just as hard on the defensive end. They take charges. They switch on defense to bigger players. They are not afraid to be physical.“That 1-2 punch of those two, their games totally complement each other,” Lakers coach Darvin Ham said. “And when we get DLo back, you throw him in and have a three-headed monster of those three guys.
Reaves was outstanding for the Lakers on the trip. Over the four games, he averaged 20 points and 5.2 assists per game. He shot 62.1% from the field and 57.1% from three-point range. “Yeah, he’s doing everything we need him to do on both ends of the floor,” said Davis, who had 21 points, 14 rebounds and six assists in 42:05. “He took a couple of charges tonight. Big shots, threes, everything.
“He has been playing phenomenal for us and we’re going to continue to need that in the final three games that we have. But he’s just dialed in right now. He’s locked into what we’re doing. He knows what we need from him. We’re asking him to take big shots and he’s not afraid of the moment and it shows.”
