Lakers coach Darvin Ham on the dynamic between D’Angelo Russell & Austin Reaves: “Their synergy has been great. They support one another wholeheartedly, and it’s a joy to coach them both.” pic.twitter.com/Un1gtNlQwL – 10:16 PM

Same starters for Nets tonight at Lakers:
Dinwiddie
Bridges
Johnson
Finney-Smith
Claxton – 10:09 PM
CJ Holmes @CjHolmes22
Jacque Vaughn said the Nets need to own every possession. Believes that will unlock everything else. – 10:09 PM
Evan Barnes @evan_b
Jacque Vaughn had a lengthy answer when asked about if he’s concerned that grit and rim protection are going from strengths to struggles lately. Mentioned how the defenses have changed over the course of the season and now with Day’Ron Sharpe out. #Nets pic.twitter.com/LADfMa5LYJ – 10:04 PM

CJ Holmes @CjHolmes22
Mikal Bridges (right shin contusion) will start tonight for the Nets in Los Angeles. Was upgraded to available earlier. Same five: Dinwiddie, Bridges, Finney-Smith, Johnson, Claxton. – 10:03 PM
Brian Lewis @NYPost_Lewis
Asked Jacque Vaughn about the #Nets‘ lack of grit late and tough endgames: “I don’t think it’s ever been about effort for our group. The ability to be mentally tough throughout the course of the game is something that’s been challenging for our group.” – 10:00 PM
Ryan Ward @RyanWardLA
Anthony Davis (bilateral Achilles tendinopathy) and LeBron James (left ankle peroneal tendinopathy) have been upgraded to AVAILABLE for tonight’s game vs. Brooklyn. – 9:58 PM

Evan Barnes @evan_b
More Vaughn: No minutes restrictions on Mikal Bridges tonight but he’ll be monitored.
With Day’Ron Sharpe out, the #Nets have done more switching on defense being small. It’s helped defend the 3 better but giving up more rebounds so that has to improve. – 9:16 PM

Mike Trudell @LakersReporter
Nets coach Jacque Vaughn on Anthony Davis emerging even more as a passer of late out of double teams, but also in screen/roll action:
“He’s doing it from different areas in the court. His ability to really be a hub of late puts another problem in front of us.” – 9:12 PM

Darvin Ham says Rui Hachimura is still under a minutes restriction. He wouldn’t disclose the minutes total. – 8:55 PM
Mike Trudell @LakersReporter
Brooklyn (16-24) has struggled of late, winning just 3 of their last 17 games after a 13-10 start, but Darvin Ham said he sees plenty of talent on both sides of the ball: “Throw the record out the window. We have our work cut out for us tonight.” – 8:52 PM
Kellan Olson @KellanOlson
Devin Booker becomes the second player this season to score 25 points in the first quarter, per @Stathead.
The other player? Mikal Bridges. – 8:36 PM
Evan Sidery @esidery
There is a big trade market for Bruce Brown, which includes the Lakers and Knicks as prime contenders to potentially acquire him, per @wojespn.
If Brown wouldn’t have signed with the Pacers in free agency, Los Angeles was his likely destination. pic.twitter.com/3BcNgotvAW – 8:35 PM

Jovan Buha @jovanbuha
The latest Lakers intel three weeks out from the trade deadline:
— The discussed framework of a Murray-Russell swap
— The Lakers’ interest in Bruce Brown Jr.
— LA’s reluctance to trade Austin Reaves for a non-All-Star
— Other names to watch and more: theathletic.com/5202959/2024/0… – 8:31 PM

Always love seeing how many fans in @SmoothieKingCtr are totally bought in and already wearing the Pierre Mardi Gras hats (also just saw Joel and AD wearing them pregame). Definitely something you will notice in the stands if you’re watching on TV pic.twitter.com/WmBddqIXkA – 8:01 PM

A new No. 1 in NBA history for LeBron James, but this one it’s kind of random.
This week, LeBron became the player to have faced the most opponents in the NBA after surpassing Vince Carter.
He’s played against 1,669 different guys.
That’s 34.2 percent of all NBA players ever. – 4:37 PM
