In a commanding performance led by D’Angelo Russell and Anthony Davis, the Los Angeles Lakers secured their third consecutive victory with a 134-107 triumph over the Memphis Grizzlies in the NBA In-Season Tournament.

However, the first quarter was marked by on-court tensions, resulting in a rare occurrence of five technical fouls.

Davis, Santi Aldama, Desmond Bane, Russell, and Grizzlies’ head coach Taylor Jenkins were all recipients of technical fouls during the heated exchange which started with an altercation between Davis and Aldama under the basket.
