Recap of Game 2 of Suns vs Lakers

The Suns made a big run late in the fourth quarter, and it seemed like the defending NBA champions were at risk of losing two games to none in the first round.

But, of course. James and Davis will not let that happen. James made a turnaround 18-foot jumper, and Davis then followed it with a 3-pointer. Because of this, Los Angeles held on for a 109-102 win in Game 2 of the playoff series.

After a 10-1 run in the third quarter, the Lakers had a 63-48 lead against the Suns. James scored a 3-pointer, and it seemed like LA would be on to victory. However, Phoenix slowly fought back.



Cam Johnson scored two 3-pointers late in the third quarter. This pulled the Suns within 79-72. Small forward Jae Crowder made a 3-pointer and was fouled. Thus, he was given the free throw for a four-point play that pulled Phoenix within 84-83 of the fourth quarter.

Deandre Ayton’s dunk off an offensive rebound also put the Suns within 88-86. This was their first lead since the opening minutes.

Unfortunately, they couldn’t keep up with such play, and they eventually struggled to defend against James and Davis in the final minutes. This led to the Lakers’ victory in Game 2 of Suns vs Lakers.
