Jodie Meeks had 19 points for the Lakers (2-2) while Pau Gasol added 13 points and Chris Kaman had 12.

Los Angeles closed the first half on a 7-0 run to take a 50-48 lead. There were 13 lead changes in the first three quarters.

Steve Nash of the Lakers did not play in the second half because of a sore left ankle. He played 8 minutes and missed his only shot.

This was the first NBA game played at the MGM Grand Arena.

The Lakers travel to Shanghai, China, to play two games next week against the Golden State Warriors.
