At home, the Los Angeles Lakers faced many difficulties before a Miami Heat was on the rise with a two-match winning streak. Not only were the top three scorers absent, LeBron James, Anthony Davis and Lonnie Walker, the Lakers were also without the service of a key player, Troy Brown Jr., because of a left quadriceps strain.

Overcoming the lack of personnel, the remaining Lakers players showed strong determination to beat a not easy Miami Heat with a score of 102-109.
Dennis Schroder became the brightest star of the Los Angeles Lakers with 32 points scored. In addition, the player born in 1993 also became an important defensive link when he was able to neutralize the attacks of the Miami Heat.
