Los Angeles Lakers registered their third straight win after beating Sacramento Kings at home. With a 122-114 win over the Kings, the Lakers improved their winning percentage over .500. LeBron James and Malik Monk led the scoring charts for the Lakers with 31 and 24 points, respectively.
James has been in fine form in the past few weeks and, despite the Lakers’ woes, continues to deliver. Two of the biggest problems with the Lakers this season have been injuries and consistency. However, injuries to some of their top players have allowed their youngsters to step up. For Malik Monk, it has been a blessing in disguise.

Malik Monk has been in top form in the past few games and LeBron’s presence on the court has enhanced his game. James, after guiding the Lakers to a victory over Sacramento Kings, has reacted to a viral tweet praising him for freeing Malik from the Hornets.

It’s fair to say the move worked out for both the Lakers and Malik. He has already played 34 games this season and has even bagged six starts. LeBron James has brought out the best in him and the two have formed an incredible duo in the past few games. Can the Lakers improve on from here and mount a title challenge?
