Los Angeles Lakers vs Utah Jazz Full Game Highlights 2nd Qtr | Dec 18 | 2025 NBA Highlights

Well, Utah ends the quarter on an 82 run >> underneath. Put it up and miss by the who’s in the game, but staying with it is Vanderbilt. >> And he missed that layup is about as bad as you possibly can. >> Wow. >> But there’s the everpresent Vandy to clean it up. >> Yeah, Lakers only went nine deep the other night in Phoenix and they hit another three. Seventh made three-pointer in the first half for Utah. >> I told you at the beginning that this was not going to be an easy game, but I didn’t think the Lakers would have this much trouble. >> And again, we talked about perimeter defense. Non-existent for the Lakers. Vando, tell you what, Stu, he’s been shooting that three pretty well. Remember, >> he he was stuck on what >> what 99 whatever number that was forever. But recently he’s 45% from the arc over his last eight games. So he’s got it he’s got it figured out. >> Oo, that’s going to be a a defensive play. I think it was against >> I thought you told me that already. >> Oklahoma City. >> Oh wow. Oklahoma City. >> Great defensive team. >> Can you imagine that? >> So they must have cooled off. Hopefully they’ll do the same tonight as they get if they get a sideline out of bounds play for an uncontested dump. You put up 44 against the Thunder. By the way, they’re up by what, what, 16 against the Clippers at home tonight. Labia Marcus Smart is open straight away. On its way and it rattles in. That’s a three for Marcus. >> They got it down to six. So, let’s see if they can get their defense. This is the unit with Vandy out there. Larabia, Marcus Smart, LeBron >> down the middle again. And they get a foul before. Had a nice little stretch where he kind of figured things out for a while. Cooled off and misses the first of two. >> No. Misses both. >> Wow. He became the second youngest Jazz player to post a 20point game in their franchise history. Just going back a little bit, the youngest was CJ Miles. Remember CJ? Under ninth. Here is the rebound by Nerkach. Both teams playing a plenty of players already here in this contest. Spike like many others known for his offense. They’ve been on him a little bit too. By the way, if you’re a fan of college hoop, number 13 is Walter Clayton. You might remember him from Florida. Led Florida to the title last year. Was the final four most outstanding player. He’s on the floor right now wearing number 13 for Utah. James crosscourt. He’s trying to go at Clayton that time. That one hit the bottom of the rim. So rejected by the rim. Bounced out at Kowski way too hard, but he stayed with it. Boy, he really rushed that. He had all the time in the world to lay it up and in. Laia on its way down it goes. Jake. And >> that’s what you do. You take advantage of opportunities in the open court, whether it’s a three ball or attacking the rim. And Jake did a good job of draining the triple. Boy, he needs to see that go through too. Last 18 games, 22% from downtown for Lavia. >> I do trying to get back in a rhythm. CL trying to attack Ru baseline. Here they go. That’s good dive that time and the miss layup. How many blown layups are we going to get? Lakers will take the gift. SPINNING LEBRON. >> THAT’S A patented LeBron move there. would nice drop step for the easy one. >> Seven points for the King in 12 minutes. Shoot 50%. In and out back in again. Walter Clayton of this season were against Utah last month. He averaged 14 and 10 assists in those two. >> You got a Dalton Connect sighting here as he comes in for a Jake. So again, everybody uh who’s available has played. How about that in this game for the Lakers right now and LeBron just on Ebike. Thank you, Luca. >> Yeah, he’ll he’ll be in the police report for speeding or something. >> Got a chance to finally thank him on the bus here. But 103 ebikes and they’re not cheap, trust me on that one. What a generous gift. All right, back to action here. Here’s Marcus Smart. You look good on that bike, Ste. Here’s LeBron. LeBron. Oh, a foul. 15 20 seconds ago. >> Here he is. Control the basketball. Guns it now over to Ruy Hatimura. Ruy on its way. Got it. >> All right. Ruy loves that turnaround jump shot. Braun seems to be moving a little better right now, but still. >> I’d have to check him out a little bit. >> Only player ranked in the top 15 in three-pointers and field goal percentage. Drew Hatamura. You were counting Nerkach in the lane. >> Yeah, >> Nerkage short. LeBron’s right there. Two games ago, LeBron 15 rebounds in 36 minutes. Again, he turns 41 on the 30th of December. Will be home to the powerful Detroit Pistons on that night at Crypto.com Arena. How about that? The powerful Pistons working underneath Jackson Hayes. >> I said Nerkage just his elevator doesn’t go nearly as high as Jackson’s as he got another offensive put back. >> Two for two. Nine minutes at that time Luca turned his head and never did see the ball and his man got an easy one. >> You’ve got Sensall with 10. Luca and LeBron both in double digits for the Lakers. out on top. It’s to Dalton Connect who when he is in the game Connect has been shooting the three extremely well. LeBron down the middle he goes ALL THE WAY BACKAND LAYUP IS GOOD. Another patented LeBron look. >> And it looked good on that one too because that’s his takeoff leg that he had in a few minutes ago. >> Deonte George, look at this high dribble and he lays it up and in. Had everybody thinking he was going to dish and then he just went to lay it in. Luca with control of the basketball. LOB UNDERNEATH. Slam it home. Feed. FEED THE BIG GUY. >> Nerk is saying that’s not fair. Why should he be allowed to jump that high? >> Luca picks up another assist. Jackson Hayes. Well, he’s like we said, feasting off of some great opportunities and doing some good work in the offensive rebound department. Lakers are only down by two. We’re past the halfway mark of the quarter. Missing the layup is George. He thought he was fouled. LeBron’s down again. >> I thought he used his left arm as a weapon there. >> Look at Luca just bulls his way in. Ruy. Luca on its way and it’s a rebound on the far side. >> That would have given the Lakers the lead >> in the leg. It’s four to three. That one is high off the window to score. >> Walter Clayton. >> Clayton Jr. Chev try to reach this one as he put it high on the window. >> Donic and the Lakers shooting 54%. Cooling down a bit. Utah 66% in the corner. Setting up a little camp out there was Ruie. Hachamura right now is one for three and 0 for two from three-point land. >> Oh, that’s a good seal and a pass. What a bounce, Jury. This is the most playing time Nerkage has had in a couple of years. They’re looking for it again and trying to keep it alive. And finally, the Lakers and Ruie come up with it. >> The Lakers ever heard about boxing out the shooter? Just wondering Donic and Clayton Jr. on him just bumps him, creates a little real estate, and hits the mid-range. >> You saw me wants that contact so he can do his step back. Kei George got it.

  1. Jazz player who missed 2 shots in a raw, he needs to practice free throws every day for 3 hrs. He thinks he is a professional player, I do not see it that way.

  2. from what I see this game. Luka missed quite a bit on the 3 pointers, and Caitlin Clark from the womens seems to be more accurate with 3 point shooting. That is what I am seeing.
