The Los Angeles Lakers look to bounce back tonight in Indiana after losing five of their last six games on their home stand. That will be a tough task for the Lakers without Nick Young, who is sidelined tonight with pain in his left knee. Check out tonight’s highlights:
1st Quarter
Johnson struggled in limited minutes in the past 2 games, failing to score vs. BOS and getting only 3 vs. BKN, but hit his first FG tonight.

MarShon Brooks nailed his first shot off the LAL bench, a 3 off Farmar's feed, to cap a 6-0 run that gets LAL within 6 at 22-16.
