In 274 possessions, the Lakers are +8.7 in Point Differential with Russell on the floor. Over the last two weeks, the Lakers have a +2.5 Point Differential and are beginning to round into form as they climb their way into the Western Conference playoff picture. Even though the Knicks are 6-4 on the season with no rest, this is not an ideal spot for a potentially undermanned team.

New York Knicks 112 vs 108 Los Angeles Lakers summary: stats ... (AS English)

Julius Randle and the New York Knicks topped D'Angelo Russell and the LA Lakers to put an end to their three game losing streak with a win on Sunday night.

They are three games ahead of the Heat in 7th and three games back of the Cavs who are in fourth place in the conference. Randle going strong to the rack and he almost rips the rim off! Russell pulls up and hits the three ball again!!! We have a game with 46.3 to go in the fourth quarter! Schroder hangs a high arching pull up on the baseline and strings it. On this play he played PG as he went behind the back and served one up to Toppin. With no Jalen Brunson, it was on everyone to step up in LA to bring the three game losing streak to an end. He sealed the game with a three ball late in the fourth to give the Knicks a 10 point lead, their largest of the night. LA have the same record as the 10th placed Thunder and the 9th placed Jazz, and are just a game back from the 8th placed Mavs. On a night where he met Denzel Washington, Barrett was the Equalizer in the final 12 minutes to make the difference and bring an end to the losing streak for the Knicks. Randle ended the half with 25 points as the Knicks took control of the scoreboard in the first quarter and didn’t let it up until late in the third quarter. This came after a subpar last few games in which he and the Knicks struggled to find their offensive rhythm.
