Lakers give LeBron a good show, make NBA Summer League semis

LAS VEGAS (AP) - The Los Angeles Lakers put on a good show for LeBron James.

With James in attendance , the defending NBA Summer League champions cruised back into the semifinals, beating the Detroit Pistons 101-78 on Sunday.

Second-round pick Svi Mykhailiuk scored 19 points and Josh Hart added 18 for the Lakers, who shot out to a 33-14 lead after one quarter inside UNLV's Thomas & Mack Center.
