Tiger Punch March 12, 2019 Today, the Lakers beat the Wizards 122-109 at home, ending a two-game losing streak. After the game, Lakers forward LeBron James was interviewed.
Speaking about the clashes with former team-mates Kyle Kuzma and Kentavius Caldwell Pope, James said: "Of course, every moment is special. We had a lot of pairs tonight. Seeing my two brothers, KCP and Kuz on the pitch, it feels fantastic to see Kuz evolve this season. Throughout the season he has been able to organize, shoot and make decisions, KCP has certainly been able to hit shots accurately as always, and he is a great teammate.
"There's always a feeling of welcome when you see your teammates who have won championships in the trenches with you, and you know how much effort, sweat and tears you've put in to achieve that goal. I love the fact how well they're playing now, with Kuz leading their team's scoring during Bradley's (Beal)'s absence; KCP's second-place score, KCP's 50% three-point shooting percentage over the last 10-12 games. Kuz has won two double-doubles almost every game or every other. I just love how they're doing and I'm happy for them. ”
In this game, James played 36 minutes and had 50 points, 7 rebounds, 6 assists and 1 block on 18-of-25 shooting.
