The Lakers completely broke out from the outside to start 18-0 The Pelicans were powerless to resist Davis broke through O'Neal again
preface
The Los Angeles Lakers got off to a hot start and then came up with no resistance, leading by as many as 40 points and a 35-point lead over the New Orleans Pelicans at halftime, 75-40.
In the first half, the Lakers shot 15 of 27 from three-point range in the half, setting a half-court three-point shooting record in Lakers team history. Among them, Malik Beasley scored 7 goals, DeAngelo Russell 3 goals, Troy Brown Jr. and Hachimura Yazu scored two goals each, and Anthony Davis and Austin Reeves each scored.
Race key
Beasley had contributed 21 points to the Lakers on seven three-pointers in the first half, with 24 points, three assists and two steals throughout the game.
Coupled with the excellent performance of "thick eyebrows" Davis, he has exploded 20 points and 8 rebounds in the first half. He ended up with 35 points and 17 rebounds, shooting 11-of-18 from the field.
So far, Davis has at least 35 points and 15 rebounds in five games in 2022/23, and is the first Lakers player to do so since the 1999/00 season of the "Shark" O'Neal.

Advancement of the outside line
The Lakers then continued to seize the lead and defeated the Pelicans 123-108. This is undoubtedly one of the best performances of the Lakers in 2022-23.
In the past, the Lakers were most criticized for three-point shooting, since the Golden State Warriors set off a "small-ball culture", three-pointers have become the standard scoring method of no playoff hot team, and the lack of three-pointers has become one of the reasons why the Lakers have been struggling in the lower reaches of the West Bank.
However, even if this game was not the most consistent performance of the Lakers, without LeBron James, he managed to hit 46.2 percent of three-pointers, giving fans "great reassurance".
Malik Beasley
Since they completely overhauled the roster, the Lakers have continued to improve, enhancing their chances of making the playoffs, and the team's record this season has improved to 34-35, temporarily ranking tenth on the West Bank.
Before the game, the Lakers and the Pelicans also tied for 9th place on the West Bank with 33-35, and after the game, they not only led the opponent in the ranking, but also achieved a 35-point lead early in the first half, reaching a team record and bringing a great blow to the Pelicans, which can be described as "murderous".
The Lakers' worries
LeBron James is reportedly likely to miss "most of the time" remaining season. James has missed the last seven games since his right foot injury worsened on Feb. 26, leaving fans extremely worried.
While Davis has been excellent against his former club, Lakers coach Hamm said the foot injury that caused Davis to miss 20 games at the beginning of the season still hasn't fully recovered. Although Davis has been pain-free since his injury, the team decided to miss Davis for the next game against the Houston Rockets to avoid any surprises.
Anthony Davis
summary
The Lakers need every win from now on, which means Davis needs to play as much as possible. Even if they're facing a team that's struggling downstream like the Pelicans, Los Angeles wants the star to be on the court in case something goes wrong.
Davis' final two games before the tournament are a far cry from his dominance over the past few weeks. In fact, Davis' poor performance was a big reason for their loss to the Knicks. Russell and the other supporting players have contributed to the team, but they still need Davis' normal play to really succeed.
