Hey basketball fans! I'm going to give you another NBA game recap for the preseason and today, I'll give you a recap from the match between the Los Angeles Lakers and the Sacramento Kings.
The Los Angeles Lakers beat the Sacramento Kings in their 2018 preseason game, 128-123 on Thursday night. it was a hard fought battle between the Kings and the Lakers but Brandon Ingram shines and lead the Lakers to a win.
Ingram was all over the floor, finishing strong to the rim, hitting mid-range shots and showing that he's also clutch when he hits a short fade away to take the lead at the dying seconds of the ball and stealing the ball from an inbound. Ingram finished the game with a spectacular 31 points, 9 rebounds, 3 assists, 3 steals and 1 blocked shot shooting 66.7 percent from the field. Ingram is getting better with LeBron James and his breakout season is coming!
The Lakers started with a new starting lineup of LeBron James, Kyle Kuzma, Brandon Ingram, JaVale McGee and Josh Hart. It's a pretty fast pace lineup with size and shooting. LeBron plays at the point, Ingram and Hart as the wings and Kuz and JaVale as their bigs.
LeBron bullied the Kings in his 15 minutes of action and finished with a strong performance recording 18 points, 3 rebounds and 4 assists shooting 60 percent from the field. Bron is killin it with his performance, imagine 18 points in 15 minutes? Wow. What if he played 30 minutes or more? He's just insane.
Kyle Kuzma fills up the stat sheet finishing the game with 17 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists and 2 steals while Josh Hart added 17 points, 5 rebounds, 1 assist and 1 block. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope doing great off the bench with 11 points and 7 rebounds. Lance Stephenson staying energetic finished the game with 10 points, 2 rebounds and 5 assists.

For Sacramento, rookie Marvin Bagley III finally had a great game. Bagley finished with a double-double of 19 points and 10 rebounds with 2 assists and 1 block. Harry Giles still shows some glance of a great center finishing with 14 points, 7 rebounds, 3 assists and 1 block. Giles has been consistent in his preseason games so far.
