For a short while, it looked like the Los Angeles Lakers were going to possibly beat the Cleveland Cavaliers on Tuesday night.
LeBron James and his crew were sticking with the Cavs, despite losing Anthony Davis early in the match due to the flu.
But eventually, the Cavaliers pulled away due to the power of Donovan Mitchell and the final score was 116-102.
The Lakers, who have been looking much better lately, are now 10-13.
There were multiple players in double digits: James with 21, Thomas Bryant with 19, Russell Westbrook with 16, and Dennis Schroder with 16.

Then there was Kendrick Nunn: during his 6 minutes and 41 seconds, Nunn scored 0 points, 0 rebounds, 0 assists, 0 steals, 0 blocks, and 0 field goals.
Nunn was living up to his name because he didn’t a single thing for the team.
It was a supremely tough night for the young player and, sadly, it wasn’t the first one he’s had this year.
Needing More From Nunn
This is not the first time that Nunn has scored zero points for the Lakers this season.
He actually did the same thing just two games ago.
He has actually now gone scoreless eight times this season.
While a player can still be productive without making buckets, it is clear to see that Nunn isn’t having the season he needs.
The guard is averaging 5.2 points, 1.3 rebounds, and 1.2 assists in 2022-23, below career averages of 13.6 points, 2.7 rebounds, and 2.7 assists.
Nunn sat out all of last season because of an injury and hopes were high that he could really help the Lakers upon his return.
That hasn’t been the case so far and that’s why no one is surprised to hear Nunn’s name attached to trade rumors.
