In a challenging matchup against the Houston Rockets, the Los Angeles Lakers suffered a significant 135-119 defeat on Monday night, prompting Lakers legend James Worthy to characterize the loss as “embarrassing.”
LeBron James, Anthony Davis, and D’Angelo Russell contributed 23 points each for the Lakers, who were coming off a double-overtime victory against the Golden State Warriors on Saturday, but it wasn’t enough.
In the postgame interview, James faced a question from Dave McMenamin about Dillon Brooks, but it was cut short before the journalist could complete his inquiry.
