With the 2020 NBA All-Star Weekend right around the corner, it would not have been surprising for the Los Angeles Lakers to go into their matchup against the Denver Nuggets and struggle as most teams already have the break on their minds.
However, the Lakers overcame a double-digit first-half deficit and defeated the Nuggets in overtime, 120-116.
The All-Star duo of LeBron James and Anthony Davis led the way as James finished with a triple-double (32 points, 14 assists, and 12 rebounds) while Davis recorded a double-double (33 points, 10 rebounds) to go along with two blocks and two steals.
