Lakers Beat Clippers; Early-Season Rotation Still Taking Shape

Los Angeles beat the Clippers 103–87 on October 29 to reach 4–1, with 15 steals and a 23-point night from Quentin Grimes. Dončić had been cleared for the October 30 Warriors game, but the available reading does not report that game’s result; Redick’s rotation and Thybulle’s role remain unsettled.
