Like most nights, LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers found themselves in a close contest but were able to pull away late from the San Antonio Spurs, winning 114-104.
Head coach Gregg Popovich’s teams have always given the Lakers issues, but the talent was too much to handle for a Spurs team that has really struggled as of late. San Antonio did a good job of mucking up the game and forcing the Lakers role players to step up after a relatively quiet half from James and Anthony Davis.
However, the second half was another story as the All-Star duo kickstarted a huge 30-7 run that gave Los Angeles a double-digit lead and they never looked back after.
