After falling 102-107 Tuesday, there was no time to rest for the Los Angeles Lakers who were back in action Wednesday night to take on the New Orleans Pelicans. The defensive frontcourt duo of Anthony Davis and Omer Asik posed a threat to the Lakers who were still seeking their second win of the season. Byron Scott sent out his usual starting lineup of Jeremy Lin, Kobe Bryant, Wesley Johnson, Carlos Boozer and Jordan Hill. Check out the highlights below:

Back to back triples for Kobe here in the first. He’s got 11 on 4-6 shooting overall, 2-3 from deep.

Second Quarter
Boozer's been going right around 7-footer Alexis Ajinca, up to 7 points after a left-handed finish put LAL up 32-28.

Third Quarter
A deep 3 from Jeremy Lin was countered in transition by Jrue Holiday. Poor D from the Lakers, as NOP stays up 66-60.

Eric Gordon completely lost Kobe, thinking Lin took a shot, but Lin instead found Bryant for his 4th 3-pointer. Kobe has 21 (on 18 FGA's).
