Phoenix has outperformed expectations at 14–11 and seventh in the West, despite injuries and the departures of past stars. Jordan Otte’s group stumbled in the NBA Cup quarterfinals against the Thunder, but Dillon Brooks’ two-way surge (team’s No. 2 scorer at 21.7 ppg) and steady roles for Grayson Allen, Mark Williams, and a limited Jalen Green keep them competitive.

The Lakers, 17–7, were bounced by the Spurs after conceding 132, with Luka Doncic (35) and Marcus Smart (26) unable to offset shaky perimeter defense. They lean on isolation from Doncic and LeBron as Austin Reaves (27.8 ppg) shines, with Ayton and Hachimura contributing.
