The Lakers defeated the Trail Blazers back-to-back 123-115 and won 4 consecutive victories.

Two-way player Nick Smith Jr. made 10 of 15 shots, 5 of 6 three-pointers, and scored 25 points, 1 rebound, 6 assists and 2 steals in 26 minutes and 52 seconds.

At the critical moment of the fourth quarter of the game, he hit two consecutive three-pointers to open the point difference to double digits. Speaking of these two goals, he said: "I was in an open position at the time. It was Smart who broke through the penalty area and attracted two defenders. I got the open space and took a decisive shot. As for the last ball, it was a confident shot when the hand was hot. Since there was an opening, I shot it."
