NBA Mini: Charlotte Hornets vs Los Angeles Lakers | Extended Highlights
Here’s Austin Ree averaging 31 points per game. His alleyoop is right on time to DeAndre Aton. Score to the second we go here in Uptown. Luca now 26 years of age in his eighth NBA season. Ball poked away by James finds its way to Smart. [Applause] Second Alley to DeAndre Aton. [Applause] Hornets lead by three. Not surprising. LA’s first three field goals have been twos make it their first four field goals have all been twos early in that play right here right there he thinks he’s got a foul right there and he forces the contact good no call the ball bounces right back to him and fins over hot three consecutive 20point games for the rookie Kipple Donich another and one good golly over the top there’s Luke right here you got to you got to guard him put your hands Is it a little too late? Right up on him that time. But a good pass, good catch and finish. Nic. He’s got the last nine for LA. Walking the tight rope along the baseline and laying it in. Miles shoots 49% at home. On the road, he only shoots 34%. Big difference. Luc doesn’t head to intermission. [Music] It’s an important game for KJ Simpson. He grew up in LA. Musa takes his time and scores. Lakers didn’t match up at all. Cons down a pair. Man leaves it for Khan. Swirls it through. First three-pointer for Kiple. He’s a former number one overall pick actually in the draft that had Luca Donuch in it. Big basket right now for Miles Bridges. That guy’s got three of them. Offense has been right on time so far for both sides. Back door cut. Hachimura with a chin up. Turn over. Wow. No look pass a beauty blocked at the rim by Musa. His presence known to look away pass fools everyone except Aka Musa. Track. Oh no. No, Musa again just destroys the shot of Eightton. Deny it. Eightton says, “I’m going throw a little wood on you.” No, I got some wood of my own. Get out. Hey, Luca passed that ball. The Lakers just stopped playing. Jackson Hayes is the new center. DeAndre Aton’s out. You just saw Jared Vanderbilt. Back door cut to Hayes. That is the third dunk set up by Luca Donuch. Final two minutes of our first quarter. It has been a highscoring, entertaining first quarter. Blocked away by Hayes. And that’ll be shot clock violation. Both sides of the pillar. That’s right. Miles has had a nice first. He continues. They got another LeBron James. May see him today. He’s on the active roster. Marcus Martin. Three-pointer for the veteran guard. He’s a veteran guy. I can feel that play breaking down. Threw one up deep and it swirled through his first field goal of the game. Played seven minutes in the first quarter. Didn’t shoot. Now leads the Hornets in dunks. He is up to 21 dunks. And Reed, good golly Austin Reeds. Chance for it and one for Austin Reeds. Colin right here. He’s going to fake that ball. keep the attention of Hayes and then wrap it right around him. Easy. I mean, this is this is Farmstrong right here. I mean, on his way down off the glass for no doubt. Run him off the line. Don’t foul him. Make him take a tough shot. Oh, look at that. Look at the hands. Pumper stays with it. Donic. [Applause] Oh, beautiful play by Donic. He He is so aware. Rhythm, dribble, relocate, and hold the follow through. Donic hoping for a whistle. Oh my goodness. Off the window and in. Yeah, he thought he had a free one right there cuz he and then was a player coach for many years. Two different places, St. Louis and in Seattle. Won his first championship in Seattle with the supersonics. That was the team that was led by Jack Sigma. It’s like the equivalent of you missing a couple of twoos. Oh, the Hornets can’t get the rebound. [Music] Reed shoots 91%. Oh my goodness. Plenty of time to get right. Oh no. Left some meat on the bone. Five quickies at the end of the quarter. They peek back at that shot clock. Three and a half seconds. I can go full length, get to the rim and three. Ston has the ball taken away by Marcus Martin. Hachi Mura really exaggerating to get that one over the top of the rim. Eightton got behind the defense. How many times have we seen eight? Donic averages 37. He’s got 21. That’s good defense. Oh, but better offense. [Applause] [Music] Aton Smart keeps it with LA. And the Hornets are in a bit of trouble. Aima spins it through and the lead is now nine. Sexton lost it. [Music] [Applause] Hatimura Zion gets it to Khan. Three. Second triple for Khan. Canoling. [Applause] [Music] Oh, rim it in. He’s a perfect three for three on three. [Applause] Good job by KJ. There’s certain times when you watch his basketball. Oh my goodness. Luca Donic. Second dunk of the year for Wonder Boy. Luca Donuch’s second dunk of the year. Looks better in the uniform. Right above the rim as well. Lukonic is out. He had a whale of a third quarter, but he played the entire 12 minutes. Needs a rest. Coiner lowers the shoulder and a chance for an add one. This guy right here looking shoulder to shoulder. Just hit and powers it through. [Applause] Bounce pass goes arai. Turnoveria. Nice strong finish for Labraia. It’s kind of a stealth injury. People don’t realize how much your shoulders get hit going through screen. Austin Reeves. You got Michael Thompson, long time radio guy. Yandre who his little chap said Buddy Hill. How did you know that? Yeah. Okay. still chance to dream a little bit. That is six unanswered points in the last 20 seconds of game time. This came out in a zone totally destroyed. Oh no. Marcus Smart still got defensive chops and it results in two for Donic. He’s always been a smart player. A couple years ago he’s actually playing with a guy who was shrew. Hey, up and down. KJ Simpson for three. Still plenty of time for the Hornets. Get out. Musa kept it in bounds, but it goes out. Third block of the night for Musa Diabate. Donic understands the situation. Oh my goodness. With the shot clock at one. Donic just 37. He’s got 36. This is smart. Yeah, Marcus Mark has turned the clocks back on his career. Alupa spoiled. Musa rewarded for his work on the defensive end with a dunk on the offensive end. Rimto rim run [Music] and they love his L. Marcus Smart right there. They found it in eight. Seion, that guy doesn’t miss. He needs to shoot more. [Applause] Blocked. That’ll be a jump ball with two seconds on the shot clock. Final shot of our game. McNeely with the misfire. And that will do it. The Hornets who led for a good chunk of that first half. It’s on ESPN on Disney Plus. Turn it on.
