2016 NBA Summer League: Los Angeles Lakers vs Utah Jazz

After the Los Angeles Lakers looked incredibly promising through their first three games at 2016 NBA Summer League, they started tournament play on Thursday night. And while D’Angelo Russell and the young Lakers on the squad amassed a huge first-half lead, they weren’t able to hold on to it as they ultimately suffered their first loss in Vegas. On Friday, they’ll now play their final game in Summer League in a consolation game against the Utah Jazz.

Russell struggled mightily in the second half on Thursday night as the Lakers lost, but it wasn’t just him as Larry Nance Jr. also was relatively quiet before leaving the game late due to an injury and as Brandon Ingram continued to look like an inconsistent rookie.

Though many of those guys could sit out on Friday against the Jazz, you’d like to see players like Russell get the nod at least to start the Summer League finale just to see how they respond after showing so much leadership and other great things in Vegas thus far. Even if a Summer League title isoff the line, the intrigue still remains in tact.

For those Lakers fans wanting to watch but that don’t have TWC Sportsnet or NBA TV, fear not. Every Summer League game is also available through ESPN3 and WatchESPN and this Lakers vs Jazz matchup is no exception.
