It wasn’t easy, but the Los Angeles Lakers got back in the win column on Monday night, hanging on to beat the Charlotte Hornets, 126-123, in overtime.
The Laker bigs got the Lakers off to a good start as DeAndre Jordan and Anthony Davis used their size to score around the rim. Despite that, the Hornets battled back and took a 13-11 lead after Gordon Hayward got a floater in the lane to go.
Jordan actually looked the best he has all season with 10 points and four rebounds in his first-quarter shift, turning back the clock a bit with some highlight dunks.
