Rajon Rondo came in for a struggling Russell Westbrook with the Lakers down seven midway through the third quarter and helped spark a 24-10 run to end the quarter, as Davis finally found his stride and Anthony hit two of his seven three-pointers on the night. Anthony Davis rebounded from a rough-shooting start to finish with 32 points on 13-25 shooting, along with making his case for defensive player of the year with 3 steals and a staggering 5 blocks. Westbrook had an inefficient triple-double with 17 points on 5 of 15 shooting, 12 rebounds, and 14 assists with 7 turnovers. Malik Monk also drained a 41 footer 3 at the end of the 3rd quarter.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Malik from half court to beat the buzzer!<\/p>\n<p>(\ud83d\udcfa: <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SpectrumSN?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">@SpectrumSN<\/a>) <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/VAeFDGzF9v\">pic.twitter.com\/VAeFDGzF9v<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Los Angeles Lakers (@Lakers) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/Lakers\/status\/1457944940122554372?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">November 9, 2021<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>Even though the Lakers won tonight but after blowing another double-digit lead, losing their cool at the end of the 4th quarter to acquire 2 technical fouls, and executing a late bad shot by AD which he missed by a few inches, they were lucky enough to secure the win.<\/p>\n<p>Lamelo Ball recorded his career 2nd triple-double, he is the youngest player ever to post a triple-double surpassing his brother Lonzo Ball.
