PETE ZAYAS
About this episode

The Lakers suffered a disappointing loss to the Jazz on Wednesday night and head into the All-Star break with some of their momentum curbed. Pete and Darius discuss the game, how being without Dorian Finney-Smith and Gabe Vincent impacted their defense, Alex Len's tough first game as a Laker after being thrust into the lineup for extended minutes, and the Lakers general effort level vs. a Jazz team they'd just beaten. And then later, the guys continue their discussion of Luka Dončić's game, focusing on his passing and defense.
