Kessler supplied 16 points (6-6 FG, 4-4 FT), 15 rebounds, one assist, three blocks and one steal over 31 minutes during Sunday's 131-125 win over the Raptors.
It was the fifth-year center's second straight double-double and the fifth time in seven games to begin his Lakers tenure that Kessler recorded multiple blocks. He's been healthy and productive so far for his new team, averaging 14.3 points, 9.9 boards, 2.9 blocks, 1.1 assists and 1.0 steals in 30.6 minutes while shooting 75.4 percent from the floor.

Kessler finished Friday's 112-95 loss to the Warriors with 10 points (4-7 FG, 2-3 FT), 13 rebounds, two assists and five blocks across 31 minutes.
Kessler had one of his best defensive efforts of the season, posting a double-double with 13 rebounds and five blocks. The center was one of the few Lakers to finish with a positive plus-minus, and his rim protection remains a key piece of the starting lineup. He'll look to build on that Sunday against the Raptors.

Kessler registered 13 points (6-9 FG, 1-4 FT), eight rebounds, two blocks and one steal over 33 minutes during Tuesday's 136-129 loss to the Trail Blazers.
Kessler was solid in the loss, scoring on six of nine shots over 33 minutes. The center's free-throw shooting was an issue again, but his rim protection remains key to the Lakers' starting lineup.
