Lakers starters played until halfway in the 3rd quarter. No Booker, no Beal, and Durant only played in the first half. Lakers bench was atrocious. Cam Reddish, Christian Wood, and Rui Hachimura combined for 7 points. Collectively they were a -93.

Lee - Watanabe - KBD - Metu - Eubanks.
A two-way bull in a china shop, three power forwards, and a 6’11 center with t-rex arms.
This lineup was shockingly effective.
I’d say Vogel may have struck gold with this weird mishmash of non-starters, but they just played Max Christie, Christian Wood, Cam Reddish, and Rui Hachimura, surely nobody who would get rotational minutes on the Lakers at this point.
My dude…Rui will be a starter 😂
Seems pretty likely at this point the fifth starter will be Prince. Rui will be in the rotation though.
Yeah it was an intentional shot
You think Rui isn’t getting rotational minutes for the Lakers??? Have I misread?
It was an intentional shot.
