Lakers Lose First Game of the Season

PETE ZAYAS
About this episode

The Lakers suffered their first loss of the season, falling to the Suns in the first game of their five-game road trip. Pete and Darius discuss the game, hitting on LeBron's rough night, a shift in the rotation, and the continued trend of some bench groups struggling on offense. And then later, the guys show some love to Rui Hachimura, Austin Reaves, and Anthony Davis who continued their strong play even in defeat.
