The Los Angeles Lakers’ preseason began last evening in a game against the Phoenix Suns. It didn’t go as planned as the Suns easily won 103-81.

The Lakers were without their two superstars, Luka Doncic and LeBron James, so it’s no surprise that they weren’t competitive. The Suns, on the other hand, saw their star guard play.

Devin Booker went off for 24 points on 8-19 shooting in 25 minutes of action. Ultimately, this is just a preseason game, so Lakers fans shouldn’t worry. Once the season begins, expect LeBron and Luka to be ready to go.
