Anthony Davis' monster night leads Lakers past Hornets

January 28 - Anthony Davis set season highs with 42 points and 23 rebounds to help the visiting Los Angeles Lakers beat the Charlotte Hornets 112-107 on Monday night.

Davis made 17 of 28 shots from the field and reached the 40-point mark for the third time this season. He grabbed eight offensive boards and finished three rebounds shy of matching his career high.

LeBron James racked up 22 points, seven rebounds and eight assists and Austin Reaves added 17 points for the Lakers, who have won four straight games and six of their last seven.

The Hornets played most of the game without leading scorer and All-Star guard LaMelo Ball, who exited with 8:42 left in the second quarter.
