Getting Doncic or Reaves the ball when they are already on the move makes life easier for both players and makes them even more difficult for an opponent to defend.

The Lakers will face the Nuggets, their own personal Kryptonite, again on Wednesday, this time at home, and this game will have playoff implications.

After a loss to the Brooklyn Nets on March 10, Los Angeles Lakers guard Austin Reaves called himself out for his own poor shooting in the defeat, saying that he needs to "play better." Since that loss, Reaves has scored at least 28 points in four straight games—including two 30-point games in that span—while shooting 52.9% from the field.
