The Lakers starting five all scored 20 points apiece, led by D’Angelo Russell (30 points, 5 assists), Austin Reaves (27 points), Rui Hachmura (21 points), LeBron James (21 points, 14 assists), and Anthony Davis (20 points, 6 assists).

With the Lakers having all five starters score 20 or more points, it’s the first time this has been done by any NBA team in over 30 years: January 26, 1993: Orlando vs. Atlanta.

The last time this occurred for the Lakers: November 4, 1984: vs. Portland (Kareem Abdul-Jabbar 25, Jamaal Wilkes 22, Magic Johnson 21, James Worthy 21, Byron Scott 20).
