James: We have MVP-level Doncic and an evolved Reeves. The key to the season is defense.

November 19th: The Lakers defeated the Jazz 140-125. After the game, James, who returned from the game, accepted interviews with the media.

Talking about the importance of defense, James said: "When your team has an MVP-level player like Luka, his season performance has proven this, and Reeves' performance this season has also been raised to a new level. But the defenders on the field are limited, and the players I can pay attention to are also limited. For us, the biggest test is how to defend every night."

In this campaign, James made 4 of 7 shots, 2 of 3 three-pointers, and scored 11 points, 3 rebounds, and 12 assists.
