Alex Caruso opened up about the target of the Los Angeles Lakers after the start of the second part of the season.

Caruso noted the Lakers care about winning the championship and not finishing on top of the West.

“Our goal isn’t to finish the regular season first in the West, it’s to win a championship,” Caruso said, via Mike Trudell of Specturm Sportsnet.

Caruso and the Lakers have won their last four games and now are second in the West, at 28-13.
