Booker beats the Lakers 24+7! Xiaoli tries his best 20+3, and it is hard to withstand the two new players too much, Brownie makes 1 of 12 shots
8:40pm, 4 October 2025Basketball
On October 4, the NBA preseason continued. Today, the Lakers faced the challenge of the Suns at home, but both Doncic and James missed the game. Doncic played in the European Championships. James is here. It is understandable that the team chose to let them find a reason to rest in the preseason. Jaylen Green also missed the game on the Suns, becoming Little Li's dialogue with Booker. At the same time, the performance of new players Ayton and Laravia is also worth looking forward to. Let's talk about the game process first, and then talk about the players' performance.
Match Review:
At the beginning of the first quarter, Reeves hit a three-pointer to help the Lakers take the lead. Allen and Brooks hit three-pointers one after another to open up the situation. Little Li broke through and killed, Booker responded with both free throws. After that, the Lakers' offense was powered off, Booker led the team to expand the lead to 5 points. Seeing that his teammates were not good, Li could only stand up and lead the team forward. He scored 9 points in a single quarter, but Li got off the court at the end of the quarter, and the Suns seized the opportunity to reach the climax of the offensive. At the end of the first quarter, the Suns had already led by 15 points.
Nigel Hayes hit a three-pointer in the second quarter to help the Suns expand their lead. Little Li scored 2+1 response. Little Li assisted Laravia to hit a three-pointer, then turned over and jumped into the jump shot. Under his leadership, the Lakers made an 18-2 offensive climax and chased only 2 points. Booker assisted Iguodaro to eat the cake in the inside, Dillon hit a three-pointer to stop the bleeding, and then Booker scored 2+1, and under his guidance, the Suns stabilized the situation. They re-established a 13-point lead at the end of the half.
Dillon and Grayson Allen scored one after another, helping the Suns to expand their lead to 19 points and directly stopped the Lakers. Hachimura and Reeves scored 4 points to stop the bleeding. After that, Dunn and Booker scored 5 points to lead the team to a climax of the offensive. The Suns directly expanded their lead to 25 points. Seeing that they were unable to catch up with the Lakers, they also started. After that, the Lakers failed to narrow the score difference. After three quarters, they were already 25 points behind. Although the Lakers narrowed the score difference in the last quarter, the score difference was too large. In the end, the Lakers lost to the Suns 81-103.
The Suns bloomed at multiple points
This game faced the non-complete Lakers. The Suns also played their own momentum in this game. Booker made a pass and scored 8 of 19 shots in the game, 2 of 6 three-pointers and scored 24 points, 2 rebounds and 7 assists. Booker's poor offensive efficiency in this game was mainly because Vanderbilt started, and he was responsible for defending Booker. No one expected that he would have such a defensive intensity in a preseason, but Booker connected the team well.
Under his leadership, Dillon made 3 of 5 shots and 3 of 4 three-pointers and scored 10 points, 2 rebounds and 3 assists. Due to his bad reputation, Dillon's strength was underestimated. To be honest, Finney Smith's bonus to the Rockets may not be as big as Dillon. After all, Dillon not only has excellent defense, but also has a great role in leading the defensive end. His playing style may be able to establish a winning culture for the Suns in the new season. Although Durant lost the trade, it is wise to win Dillon.
In this game, Grayson Allen scored 13 points, 2 rebounds and 2 assists, the team won two rookies last year, Iguodaro scored 5 points, 9 rebounds and 2 assists, and Ryan Dunn scored 4 points, 8 rebounds and 3 assists. Iguodaro is estimated to have very little playing time after the start of the new season. After all, the Suns got Marathon, and Maruacchi. Iguodaro is now very bad at free throws, so it is normal not to get the chance.
Xiaoli tried her best
Xiaoli tried her best in this game. He made 6 of 11 shots, 1 of 5 three-pointers, scored 20 points, 3 rebounds and 2 assists. This guy has a strong ability to hit the ball. As a third-in-command, he was able to average 20+ per game last season, which is enough to show how great his scoring ability is. Xiaoli's scoring method is very efficient. Although he was targeted in the playoffs, he is one of the best three leaders in the league in terms of regular season. However, he did not play a good role in holding the ball in this game, and the team played too many singles.
Ayton scored 0 of 2 shots in this game, scoring 1 point, 8 rebounds, 2 assists, 1 steal and 2 blocks. Although everyone is playing in the preseason and will not use all their strength, we can see a player's style of play. Ayton is still as soft as before, and if he can't fight without physical confrontation, he will not fight without physical confrontation. Such a good talent is simply a waste. Smart did not play in this game. I hope that Smart will surprise the team after he plays in the future.
Another new player Laravia made 3 of 6 shots, 1 of 2 three-pointers, scored 7 points, 5 rebounds and 1 assist. He did shoot very stably, and his hand shape looked good and had the potential to become a top shooter. However, his problems were also very obvious. Although he was active enough, his talent was limited, which led to him not being able to become a top defender. The horizontal movement was too slow, and perhaps better than Hachimura's defense, but it also did not reach the average level of the league. Pelinka could still defend four positions, and he was not good at defense in any position, which was also disappointing. Brownie didn't perform well, scoring 8 points in 12 shots in the game.
