Lakers player grades: L.A. blown out by Suns despite LeBron’s 34 points

Here is how the Los Angeles Lakers graded individually from an ugly loss at home to the Phoenix Suns.

The Los Angeles Lakers lost in a blowout at home to the Phoenix Suns, 108-90.

The Lakers held leads in the first half thanks to abysmal shooting from the Suns. Mikal Bridges shot 0-of-8 from the floor at one point, and the Suns were 3-of-20 from downtown as a unit but still led at the half.

It looked like the Lakers would contest and give the Suns a run for their money down the stretch, but that didn’t materialize. Instead, the Lakers reverted to their old ways and struggled mightily in the second half.

L.A. had just two assists on six field goals in the third quarter, and it didn’t help that LeBron James twisted his ankle when coming down on a layup attempt.

Despite LeBron’s 34-point effort, not enough teammates helped him on the scoring sheet.
