Never holding a lead in the game and being down 104-80 to start the fourth quarter on the second game of a back-to-back, most would have expected that LeBron James and Anthony Davis were done for the night.

The Lakers had other plans.

James was a leading voice in the huddle prior to the quarter tipping off and looked passionate, rallying his troops into the final 12 minutes of play. Not only did James and Davis return, they helped lead the charge as the Lakers began chipping away at the deficit.

The Lakers started the quarter on a 22-9 run and suddenly, it was Sacramento calling timeouts, pressing on offense and searching for answers against the Lakers' zone defense.
