For the second time this season, the used a huge second-half rally to come back against, and ultimately beat, the Phoenix Suns on Friday night. The victory was the Lakers first on the road this season and was another example of their high-level play in clutch games this season, mostly on the back of LeBron James’ ability to not just make shots himself but also set up his teammates for good looks.
LeBron’s right shoulder fade over Grayson Allen was his 11th “clutch” bucket of the season, which leads the league.
He’s 11 for 15 from the field and 5 for 6 from the free throw line in the clutch so far.
