The Lakers superstar sends his best wishes to the people affected by the devastating wildfires in southern California.

Despite a near triple-double from LeBron James, the Mavericks mostly held Anthony Davis in check. He had 21 points, but it came on just 7/18 shooting. Any time you can hold Davis to a performance like that, you'll stand a good chance of winning, especially when Luka Doncic, Kyrie Irving, and Daniel Gafford are all out.

LeBron James said that there was one thing that made the Lakers' defense even worse in the team's loss to the Mavericks on Tuesday.

Quinten Grimes had 26 points, nine rebounds and six assists as the Dallas Mavericks snapped a five-game skid with a 118-97 win over the Los Angeles Lakers.

The Lakers' growing momentum came to a screeching halt Tuesday night with a 118-97 loss to an undermanned Dallas Mavericks team at American Airlines Center, dropping Los Angeles to 0-2 on its Texas two-step trip that started with a defeat in Houston.

The Lakers lose to the very shorthanded Dallas Mavericks, who were missing a few key players because of injury.
