Julius Randle may not be as much of a highlight reel as compared to the rest of the Los Angeles Lakers , but the Kentucky product is quietly taking his stats up a notch . Although it 's a small sample size of just seven games , Randle has improved across almost every statistical category from his 2015 - 2016 season where he played 81 games . The Lakers forward is averaging 14 points , 8 rebounds and 3 assists per game while shooting 60 percent overall . Randle continued the strong start with 18 points on 6 - of - 9 shooting against the Phoenix Suns in the win on Sunday . The minutes management for the deep Lakers squad could be the reasoning behind the shared success among the first seven games . Randle saw 28 minutes of action Sunday , while D'Angelo Russell ( 28 minutes ) and Nick Young ( 36 minutes ) saw slightly more than the third - year forward . As for the bench , Brandon Ingram , Lou Williams and Jordan Clarkson all saw more than 25 minutes of action . The Los Angeles Lakers defeated the Phoenix Suns , 119 - 108 , at Staples Center on Sunday . The Lakers ( 4 - 3 ) notched their third straight win and remain undefeated at home after another strong performance by their young , talented core . Los Angeles built upon an eight - point first quarter lead in the second period , where a series of scoring runs capped off the first half . The Suns made the game a heated contest in the fourth quarter . Devin Booker buried a 10 - foot jump shot with 6:39 left in the final period and drew a foul , sinking a free throw to pull the game within one point . The Lakers were able to outlast the Phoenix comeback attempt and did not let up their lead , even after it dwindled to just one possession . Nick Young and D'Angelo Russell nailed much needed back - to - back three pointers to put the game out of reach and secure the rest of the victory from the charity stripe . Devin Booker had a standout performance , as his sophomore season continues where he left off from his rookie year . Booker finished with 39 points , seven assists and three rebounds on 13 - of - 29 shooting . T.J. Warren added 22 points , while Eric Bledsoe finished with 19 points , two assists and two boards . Nick Young provided his best game of the young season with 22 points and seven rebounds , in addition to three buckets from behind the arc . Jordan Clarkson and Lou Williams were impressive off the bench , adding a combined 32 points on 13 - of - 28 shooting in 26 minutes and 30 minutes , respectively . Julius Randle had the most well - rounded game for the Lakers on his way to 18 points , five rebounds , four assists and one steal . Both teams play on Tuesday , as the Lakers look for their fourth straight win hosting the Dallas Mavericks , while the Suns head north to take on the Portland Trail Blazers .
