Overview
- LaRavia moved into the starting lineup with Austin Reaves and Rui Hachimura sidelined by calf injuries.
- He finished with 21 points and nine rebounds on 8-for-12 shooting, including 3-of-6 from three, in a 128-121 win over Memphis.
- JJ Redick described LaRavia as one of his "banshees" and praised his cutting, crashing and running as part of the team's effort offense.
- He had been mired in a shooting slump at 30.9% from three this season and 22.6% over his previous 10 games but credited work with assistant Beau Levesque for rebuilding his rhythm.
- The performance aligned with the Lakers' push to clean up mistakes after recent losses as Redick increased practice intensity.
