The Los Angeles Lakers finally snapped out of their four game losing streak with a victory against the Portland Trail Blazers. The Lakers, who were bolstered with the return of guard Dennis Schroder, put up an all-round performance for the win.
The Lakers had a hilarious moment early in the first quarter. After the tipoff, the Lakers had the possession, and they soon had a turnover. Just after the turnover, the team’s bench informed their talisman LeBron James that his hair was messed up.
That was the only wrong step that the King had in the game, however. James, who was coming off of a disappointing run of form, was a man on a mission against the Blazers.

In their latest win, James put up an all-round display with 28 points, 11 rebounds, 7 assists, 4 steals and 3 blocks leading the team in all departments. The champions are finally back to winning ways. They will face an in-form Golden state Warriors team in their next game and will look to maintain their winning form against the Dubs.
Can LeBron James lead the Lakers to a repeat?
While last season might have been challenging for James and Co. especially in the bubble, this season they face an even bigger challenge as they face a host of competitors who have become stronger.

The Lakers’ underwhelming results have raised multiple criticisms about the champions. But given LeBron’s performances in the playoffs, there is no doubt about how lethal this Lakers team can be.
