LeBron James, who is in the midst of a notable shooting slump, had a particularly tough game. He finished with 10 points, shooting 4-for-16 from the field and 0-for-4 from the three-point line. This performance extends his streak to 0-for-19 from three-point range over his last four games, a slump that has been evident in both his long-range and mid-range shooting.
James acknowledged the struggles, stating, `Just period, just everything. Just a rhythm. I just feel off rhythm the last few games.` He emphasized the need for hard work to regain his form, saying, `Work. Just work. That's all.`
The Lakers, now standing at 12-9 under rookie coach J.J. Redick, are struggling to find consistency on offense. Anthony Davis reflected on the team's inconsistent performance, saying, `Sometimes we look like a team that can compete with anyone, and sometimes we look like a team that is terrible and not going to do anything this season.`
