Hami Diallo holding his elbow and writhing in pain on the court. Heads straight to locker room. That's not good at all.

Rondo has just been given a flagrant 2 and is ejected. Looks like he made a move with the leg/knee toward Schroder's groin. https://t.co/WRxGv88gf0

The Thunder rally back to cut a 15-point Lakers lead to 3 heading into the 4th. Steven Adams up to a season-high 22 points (9-10 FG).

Steven Adams with a quiet 18 points now.

Thunder rallying back behind the 3-ball.

4-of-7 this quarter to get to 40.9 percent for the game.

97-90 Lakers, 4:39 third quarter.

Lakers scored 28 points in 5 minutes, yet the Thunder are only down 7. Key three-pointers from Ferg and Gallo and some serious hustle from Muscala and Schroder.

Frank Vogel is challenging the last out of bounds which went to the Thunder. The officiating has been … interesting.

Walked all the way to the free throw line saying naughty words (probably) and Cheeks had to come get him https://t.co/mhD9voS9BL

Dennis Schroder and Rajon Rondo talking a lot of shit to each other on the inbounds, both get technical fouls.

Darius Bazley has nine points on four shots. Should have 10 but his foot was on the line on an above the break 3-point attempt. Scoring in a variety of ways. Corner 3, cuts, putbacks.
— Erik Horne (@ErikHorneOK) November 23, 2019

Only two turnovers by the Thunder in the first quarter. Big improvement from last game.

Another strong start for the Thunder who trail the Lakers 33-34. #ThunderUp
