The Lakers had a tenuous one-point lead over the Clippers late in the fourth quarter when Anthony Davis switched on defense to guard the dangerous Paul George on the perimeter. The 6-10 Davis crouched low on defense, moving his feet, keeping George in front of him, making it difficult for the wing player as he got off a shot that he missed.
A few players later, the two of them were going back at it with the score tied. Davis was back in his defensive stance and George was back attacking. Again, Davis kept George in front of him and forced him into another missed shot.
