Los Angeles Lakers vs Sacramento Kings Full Game Highlights 4th Qtr | Otc 17 | 2025 NBA Highlights

He’s a block away. I won’t even see him. I’ve never been there. I got to check that out one day. It’s It’s a It’s a beautiful venue. Not too big. How about that? Just the right size. Like that, right? DeAndre Aiden go to the line. Nice little turnaround jumper. I like it. You like what you’ve seen so far? I do. His mindset, intensity just looks like a different player. Engaged. Yes. And I also love the fact that guys ran over to help him up. Those small things go a long way when it comes to team camaraderie building. Yes. He came in tonight did eight and second in all the NBA preseason blocks and second in the entire league in rebounds. Now it’s a little skewed a little bit because some teams play like four, others five. Lakers one of the only that play six. Yeah. Still very very good thing to lane to be in. Yeah. Rolling Shards. They couldn’t get it to him. Chasing his Ellis. Plenty of time on the shot clock. Eight to shoot. Ellis pull up. Beautiful. That’s a tough shot. A sweet from the outside by Ellis. Fourth year in the league. You know, last year he was nearly top 10 in steals per game. So, and we’re talking about all the things he’s doing offensively, but he’s really a difference maker on this end of the floor. Yeah. I mean, I know that one clip went viral of him turning his head on Jaylen Brunson, but that’s not the def that’s not who he is. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. He’s very good defender. That’s why I got to give him his give him his flowers. Yeah. Everybody remembers him for turning one like No, he’s actually a really good defender. He doesn’t define you. He does not define you. Free throw time. Which makes me, you know, we’re talking about Brunson and the Knicks and that’s the the other conference obviously. And will they be as good as they were last year when they really challenged to go for the title. Um, quickly in the West, we we might have touched on it the other day, but you know, who do you think is the favorite in the West? in the West. You have to give out just OKC. Yeah, you got to give you got to give the respect without question. They still have everybody back. They are the defending champs. Is Denver still right there? Yes. I think so. I love the additions of the moves that they made this summer with getting Cam Johnson, Tim Hardway Jr., Valenunis, bringing back Bruce Brown, Christian Brown looks unbelievable this year too. be those preseason, but getting those guys and then, you know, having Jamal Murray and Nico Yic being the two men that they have, they’re going to be a really good team. Ellis to score again. Got any thoughts on the East now that uh you know, Tatum is out? Yeah, I mean it’s looking like Cleveland and uh New York. If those two teams are not in Eastern Conference finals, I think those two organizations have some issues. world may come to an end if New York gets into the finals. They will be going absolutely bananas. Yeah. It’s been a long time. It’s They are so ready for it. It had been a long time since they got to the Eastern Conference final. They did that for the first time in 25 years. So, they’re making strides, but yes, they should be as good as they were last year, if not better. They have a deeper bench. But with the recent retiring of Malcolm Brogden, that does make it a little bit diff different for them with their bench depth. Yeah, Brockton, of course, one of the great bench players. He was six man of the year. Great point guard coming off the bench. Even starting could score also set the table for you. Good rebound by Aton. Good hands. Give you some size as well. Right hand side shoot. That’s the first miss for Gabe and Ru. Yeah, sorry. It’s great to see Shruder back there running the floor, his ankle. He’s He’s fine. Yeah, still out there after the Puma came off. Yeah, Kings fans, he’s all good to go. Don for three. There he goes. Yes, sir. He’s playing in the fourth quarter. Didn’t expect to see that. Yeah, you’re right. So, the Dawn is really stretching it out. Shruder, he answers right back. Euro League MVP. Is it Euro Basket? Euro Basket. Yeah. MVP summer. Euro basket. Just call him MVP of the summer. That’s all. That’s right. He’s every year in the summertime. He acts very different playing for his country. I think the all-star format this year is going to be some international versus America. That’s That would be nice. I think that’s uh switch it up. Get make it a little bit more competitive. Yeah, I think that might might peique somebody’s interest. There’s uh Sabonis, of course, his father, Arvdas, one of the great players, too, that the world had ever seen. A difference maker in his own right. Yeah, he was very good. I used to watch Arvdas all the time. Another one of the great passing bigs. Speaking of when you talk of Joic. Yeah. Off the window. Who else? He’s crafty, man. Dennis knows how to get to that basket. Reeves almost stepped into a three instead. Hang back. Eight. Looking aggressive tonight. That’s his shot right there. Danny Green 99. Eight and a half to play. 9896. Bench points tonight. 38-20. Of course, that doesn’t mean much because uh you know they’re they’re having different rotations and so many that starter not in this call right here. Man, I when players jump backwards or jump sideways, I’m not a fan of it. Yeah, I don’t think a lot of people are. All right. Experience the magic, the Luca magic of Laker basketball all season long. Tickets are on sale right now. Visit lakers.com for more information. going to say that first couple of weeks of the season home games against Golden State and Minnesota. Then there’ll be a home game against Portland on the 27th. Lakers have road games at the end of October in Sacramento, Minnesota, and Memphis. Obviously a much better team when they got John Mor good, good and healthy. Why are they booing Dennis? Any idea? He Laker fans were very tough on Dennis Shruder thinking he could have should have done more. It seems Luca deepening or they’re saying Shruder. I don’t think they said I don’t think so either, but it could have been the case. We could go that way with it. Here is Dennis. Ellis tough shotough resulted in one of those off target and a great one to Ruy in the foul by Ellis. That’s good outlet in stride. Lucas gotten hot in the start of this fourth quarter. Two backto-back threes that side step cash. So he’s at 32 minutes. You’re thinking the same thing that I am. I think we’re all I think the world’s thinking it. You’re good. The whole basketball world is You’re good. Get him out of there. Exactly. Right now. We know. We know how good you are and you’re playing enough, you know, with these guys. It’s going to be a while till LeBron and this could be it. He didn’t want to. He was having too much fun. 319 and five. I think he did did. Good job, JJ. Perfect. Yeah. I mean, but again, you know, the you know, you talked to everybody who’s around Luca, his team who travels with him, and you know, after the game the other night when he played, every one of them said the joy that he played with the other other night was great to see. He was really having that much fun in a preseason game. And that’s where it all starts. Yeah. Charis has certainly had a lot of action here. In the second half, the lob underneath look out Vandal going to climb the back of Eubanks who made the nice move on Vanderbilt. Again, Jared’s one of those guys. Stay on the floor. Missed the first 42 in limited action last year. Just 65 total games over the last two years. Yeah. Average of 32 and a half teams. Yeah. Shruder hangs. Bad pass. Take it away. Leaves surveys the floor. Smart three. Only Kings are there to collect the ball. Of course, this is the home of the Los Angeles Kings of the NHL for the time being at Sacramento here. Charich can’t drill it. Boy, that’s good offensive rebound. went right to the man Clifford. Yeah, he got lucky bounce. That’s what Austin would say cuz he right right to him. Had a good little box out. He tried to box him out. Just one of those shots that was off so much just happened to get right to you. Re the back pass. Learn to move it. And the scoop and the score for Marcus. His hands were going back and forth. I thought he was doing the 67 thing there for a second. He’s looking for a foul. It might have been some contact. Oh yeah, he got some contact on there. Shruder. Keeping that pivot clip. There you see Cleveland in a minute. Really searching for a foul that time was night for Marcus. Being a lot more aggressive as we near the halfway mark of the fourth quarter. Tough pass. Yeah, Lakers a bit fortunate that time. Turnovers. You know the Lakers only have eight. Eight. That’s it. They had seven in the first half. So, they had a really good second half on taking care of the ball. Think that was an emphasis, an adjustment at the halftime. That there’s the best, right? And it’s good to see a good third quarter cuz we hadn’t for a couple of games. First time we’ve seen Dalton connect. Now, he has played more minutes than anybody on this team coming in. Got to lay the ball up. Marcus overpassing sometimes. By the way, in fact, Don Connect had played 46 more minutes than any other Laker in the preseason. That’s a lot. Wow, that is a lot. Guess they were trying to rest him tonight a little bit. Y still didn’t get his opportunity. Smart got to get a bounce. Nearly did tap. Lot of gold jerseys back defensively. Oh, there’s Smart chasing it down. Look out being active doing what he does. getting deflections, getting in passing lanes. Of course, a little late getting into the action this year because of an Achilles. And he’s good to go as you can tell. Yeah, it looks looks looks fine to me. Yeah, making plays like that. Clifford will take it out of bounds. Colorado State Rams Shruder. Oh, that was a nice pass. Ruy shooting 45 and three. You know, that’s the thing about Ruie. You look at his numbers, it it’s they’re the same every year basically and he’s one of the great postseason three-point shooters. Seen around 48% in the playoffs with three with two. Little step back for Jake. Smart’s going to get it on the 5050. Vando, put it up. Maxion. Yeah, getting on the glass. We’ll get Reo coming in the game. Dallas. He’s very familiar with Luca, I’ll tell you that. It’s interesting to see what Dallas put out on the floor the other night. Kind of a preview on what they’re going to look like. Get a chance to see Cooper flag in person. Marcus Smart has been fun to watch tonight. Mike Trudeell. Yeah, I think that was the player, right, who was we were probably most eager to see how he looked in additional minutes. He had the 20 minutes just as his preseason debut a couple days ago, but you know, four steals so far. He’s getting some shots up. You see him rotating well off the ball, kind of calling out defenses. Want to put this back to Danny, you know, earlier in his career could guard one through five really, but especially on the perimeter that he can guard up positions as well, Danny, as you’ve seen. So, where where do you see him fitting best matchup wise at this stage of his career on defense? Yeah, he can guard the point guards, but I prefer him guarding the twos and threes. Um he’s obviously got the foot speed, but it it’ll take a toll on trying to guard a Dennis Sher for 48. He won’t play 48 minutes, but it’ll be hard to keep up with those point guards at that speed, especially at this point in his career. Good question. Thank you, Michael. Underneath Rolling was connect. Lakers turn it over from behind. Labraia ras it away from Clifford. Way to get back on defense. All right, so let’s see if the Lakers even though preseason game can hold on to this one here tonight. Koko’s coming in. Nick Smith Jr. is in the game. Yeah, great question. I like that question. Reo Shruder trying to sift his way between two players and does surprised he’s still in the game. He’s played all summer, too. I think he’s in good enough shape and he’s shown that he’s ready for the regular season. Played even longer than Luca. Come on. All the way to the title game with 349 left and it’s only a threepoint game. Kings are out of fouls. So means the Lakers are in the bonus. That was a shooting foul. Anyway, Lakers have committed three team fouls here in the fourth quarter. Again, postgame show coming up right after. They’re going to get you ready for the regular season which begins on Tuesday against Golden State. And the first two are national TV games only. Amazon Prime will have the game against Minnesota on Friday. We wish them all the best. Join the family of broadcasters. No one’s going to have to check where you’re going to see the Lakers. Is there except all the local games of course will be here at Spectrum. Yeah. Can’t wait for the start of season. I think we’re all in agreeance there. We got enough preseason. You got you got your dates in the studio all locked in and ready to go. A few of them. Okay, good. I’d rather I shouldn’t say that. I know what you’re saying. I enjoy being here with you guys. I know what you’re saying, but Stu will be back. The legendary Stu Lance. It’s always fun calling games. Great job. Tell you that. Everybody always asks. We’re very fortunate. 109 105 Clifford right at the logo. He’s handling the ball very well for a bigger guard. I didn’t expect him to be at the point guard position much. 66 at least. I thought he was taller than that. Yeah, he looks 67 68. Off to Smith. Play a couple years in Charlotte. The Lakers try to solidify the end of their bench. Also, directing traffic. Ellis Clifford bounce middle. Renault. Good left hand pass. He’s got that pocket pass down pat. Hit a couple people with a nice little dime with that left hand scoop. Two-point game. Lakers with the basketball and the lead trying to finish the preseason at two and four and trying to end it. There you go. Yeah, there you go. Break the seal. Dton connect. Get you a little rhythm. Get some confidence. This is the time for him to get his his stroke back. Kings trying to snap a nine game losing streak in the preseason over the last two years. Tough shot. Oh, tapped up and in. And and slow for him. Yeah. So, nearly a point a minute. 31 and 32. Larabia. That’s out of bounds. By the way, we have a second. Want to extend happy birthday wishes to a couple of folks. Our longtime floor manager, happy birthday, Denita, Denita Joe. She’s back back east at her son’s wedding. What a celebratory weekend it is for here. And then Jackie, of course, who works on our crew, her birthday, too. So, happy birthday to both. We’re thinking about you. Happy birthday, crew. Under two minutes now. Dare with the time winding down. Lost his footing. That’s what happened. Slipped on the floor. Had to put it up. So, we have a onepoint basketball game. Acres with Smith Junia connects Koko and Clea out there loses his man defensively and Jones throws it down again unattended right at the baseline. That was pretty aggressive and fatty little angry though. He shot earned some time in Doug Christiey’s rotation has an opportunity to do just that. connect. That was only the 19 of the game and the crowd a little quiet here in the final minute, but it’s just a one-point game. Who’s going to make plays? Reynolds underneath. Just off topped up and in by the little guy Ellis. Oh Carter. Excuse me. Devin Carter. Credit where credit is due. Deon Carter with the tap and a good one. Got urging a little defense. Open. Smith rebound tapo controls fresh 14 on the clock jun challenging the big I was going to say as advertised if you have knocked it down half a minute to play this is a game right here both benches on their feet shot clock at nine back with three with two. The big what needs to be a three-point shot. I mean JJ knows how to get get shoot a three-point shot. Out of fouls, here’s Dalton. Tied up. Chance to win. Here come the Kings. Clifford loses it underneath. Out of bounds with 1.4. Everybody’s up on their feet. Carter out of bounds. Got to get it in. Got to get it in and does to win the game. We’re playing extra. It is only free throw. He gets the B. The basketball gods are with him now. And Sacramento might get their first win in two years in the preseason. That’s a little mini mini Don Nelson bounce. Is this going to miss it? He wanted to miss it. You can’t do that, you know. Yeah. So now the Lakers, they’ll move. Catch and shoot. That’s all they can do. Connect on it way. Sacramento survives and they finally win

  1. Lakers look bad, they shot the ball extremely well, but no defense, Kings missing Demar, Sabonis, Murray, Monk, and Westbrook and still won the game in LA. Its only pre season though right.
