5. Thunder 121 Lakers 92 on November 12. Luka Doncic and Austin Reaves had the Lakers rolling and were hoping to use this matchup with the champs as a measuring stick. Well, they came up short. 29 points short to be exact. Sure, Los Angeles didn’t have LeBron James. But OKC didn’t have Jalen Williams, Lu Dort, Aaron Wiggins. Instead of validating any sort of contender status, the Lakers looked like they did not even belong in the same conversation as the Thunder.
