"We've been doing a good job at playing complete team basketball." @LakersReporter caught up with Anthony Davis following his 3rd career triple-double. https://t.co/UDAknNKCHo
โ๏ธ for @SportingTrib. The Lakers hold on to win against Charlotte. They now have a three-game win streak and end the road trip at 4-2. https://t.co/mjTAvRPDyJ

Lakers winning three games in a row feels like 10. 4-2 on this road trip is good!
AD TRIPLE-DOUBLE ๐ช โ U 26.5 Points โ O 3.5 Assists โ O 12.5 Rebounds https://t.co/c5yNwt3pVu
That said, a 4-2 roadie is a 4-2 roadie. Doesn't give you any better an idea what to make of these Lakers, but along similar lines, a three-game winning streak is a three-game winning streak. AK https://t.co/YZUrMfL0hO
The Lakers made it harder than it should have been, but beat CHA 124-118 to finish out their six-game road trip with a 4-2 record. D-Lo 28p 6a; LeBron 26p 7a 4r 4tos; AD 26p 15r 11a 3b; Reaves 9p 11a 5tos. Next game: Thurs vs. DEN, which tips off 7 hours after the deadline

Lakers will take a three-game winning streak into the trade deadline after outlasting the Hornets in Charlotte. A big few days for Rob Pelinka and Co. figuring out what -- if anything -- this team can do.
Final: Lakers 124, Hornets 118 LA staves off Charlotte's comeback to finish the Grammy road trip 4-2. They improve to 27-25 -- the first time they've been two games over .500 since Dec. 28. AD had 26 pts, 15 rebs and 11 asts. Up next: the trade deadline, Kobe statue and Denver.
LeBron James tonight: 26 PTS - 7 AST - 4 REB - 54% FG Anthony Davis tonight: 25 PTS - 11 AST - 14 REB - 75% FG D'Angelo Russell tonight: 28 PTS - 6 AST - 4 REB - 47% FG 3 straight wins for the Lakers. ๐๐ฅ https://t.co/TU3DWzT4r9
Anthony Davis sealed the win, and a 4-2 Grammy Road Trip, by blocking Bridges, leading to 2 FT's from Reaves, and then clearing a defensive board on the next trip, and hitting 2 FT's himself. Davis: 26 points, 15 rebounds, 11 assists, 3 blocks
And with that slick feed to Christian Wood at the rim, Anthony Davis just notched his 10th assist and a 16/10/10 triple-double. (And in the time it took me to type that, he made it 16/11/11.) AK
Anthony Davis has a triple-double and we're only in the third.
AD triple-double!
The Lakers, 7-19 on the road just last week, are now 10-17 thanks to dominating at Charlotte tonight. This team does not need to make a trade. It just needs to get healthy. IT DEFINITELY CAN CONTEND.
Halftime: Lakers 74, Hornets 58 LA outscored Charlotte 37-29 in both the first and second quarters. DLo has 22 points on 8-14 FGs. LeBron James has 17 points and 4 assists. AD has 12 points, 5 rebounds and 8 assists. He's handled doubles really well. LA is living at the rim.
Strong first half performance by LAL against a struggling CHA team, taking a 74-58 lead into the break. D-Lo 22p; LeBron 17p 4a; AD 12p 8a 5r. LAL is shooting 64.4% overall and 100% on FTs (11-for-11)
As @LakerFilmRoom laid out in the video below, Anthony Davis has been terrific with his passing out of the post, and grown a ton with how he deals with double teams this season. He's up to 4 assists already tonight. https://t.co/ve9nTNa6rA
