“Felt real good. In and out.”
Keita Bates-Diop on 3 he missed late with Suns down four in loss to #Lakers.
Thought Lakers were going to give up the two as Grayson Allen got a pass on a cut to the basket, but LeBron James was in the lane.

Keita Bates-Diop didn’t shoot well last night, but heady plays like these will shine once the Suns are whole.

LeBron said Kevin Durant accidentally made contact with his shin, and it’s “pretty sore right now,” but he was able to play through it.

Big lift from Cam Reddish tonight: 4 of 6 from 3 towards his 14 points, plus a pair of steals.
Taurean Prince replaced him, and got to the line after LeBron’s transition feed. Prince, like LeBron moments earlier, split the FT’s. LAL are 24 of 32 on the evening. Suns 20 for 27. – 12:30 AM

Amazing that LeBron is still doing this at this age. Alternating between dialing up a big for normal pick-and-rolls or Austin Reaves for inverted ones, over and over. If you’re a guard playing with LeBron, you’ve got to be comfortable doing a lot of different things. – 12:26 AM

“He said all the right things. And I totally believe him. But he’s a prideful dude,” Ham said. “He’s been our starting two guard. It’s an adjustment. But I told him, one, it’s going to balance us out. And when you come in, you’re going to have your own crew. Ball’s going to be in your hands and you’re not going to have to take turns with Bron, D-Lo and AD. Number two, your minutes are not going to go down. … And number three, you’re going to finish the games for us. You’ll be in at the end. Don’t be upset because you’re not out there to see the tipoff live and in person, but outside of that, nothing is really going to change.” -via Dan Woike @ Los Angeles Times / November 11, 2023
