Laker fans don’t have many reasons to celebrate with the team not doing so well. But with Shaq coming in, it made the fans all happy. They started making comparisons of what O’Neal could have done in this era of basketball. While it is still unclear which side he is supporting, it is great to see Shaquille O’Neal come in for the game.

Shaq showing up surely made many Lakers fans’ day. However, did the Lake show deliver with a legend in the house? So far, things have been pretty close in the ball game. The Laker’s offense crumbled towards the halfway point, which led the Magic to gain an 8 point lead going into the half. But the Lake show made a resounding comeback in the third quarter.

Unsurprisingly, LeBron James led the way for the purple and gold outfit. Just over the hill, The King had accumulated 22 points, 6 rebounds, and 3 assists so far while having an efficient game. Russell Westbrook also kept chopping in well with 14 points, 9 rebounds, 5 assists, and 3 steals. Stanley Johnson continues to impress with 11 points, 5 rebounds, and 2 assists toward that stage.

Rookie Jalen Suggs has come up big time for the Magic so far. He has added 13 points, 4 rebounds, 8 assists, and 2 blocks. Wendell Carter Jr. has set himself up for a big night as well, with 17 points and 4 rebounds. Franz Wagner and Mo Bamba have combined for 22 points.
