The Los Angeles Lakers finally got their first win in the league this season. After starting out the season with five straight losses, the Lakers finally snapped their streak with a hard-fought win over the Nikola Jokic-led Denver Nuggets. But their antics after the game got the fans irate and they took it out on LeBron James and crew.

Before tonight’s game, the Lakers were the team with the worst record in the NBA. Each and every team had registered a win and the Lakers were yet to open their account. And this was on the back of their minds as the Lakers stepped on court with a pledge against the Nuggets. They never let the lead get out of sight and once they took the lead, they held on to it until the final whistle.

After the game, the Lakers celebrated in their locker room as Darvin Ham got his first win as head coach. They drenched Ham in water in celebration of their victory. Meanwhile, Anthony Davis, LeBron James and the entire team hugged their coach and danced around in joy.
