LeBron James had 22 points, 11 assists, and eight rebounds while Anthony Davis had 27 points, 10 rebounds, and four assists, as the Los Angeles Lakers, defeated the Golden State Warriors on Saturday night, 125-120.
Wiggins had a solid first game in his debut with the Warriors. He had 24 points, five steals, and three assists as he continued his career-long record of playing strong games against LeBron James and his teams. However, the Warriors weren’t very close to a win on Saturday night.
While Avery Bradley had a rare hot-shooting night for the Lakers, the Lakers had a phenomenal night shooting from the field. Bradley led the Lakers in scoring for much of the night but the Lakers shot over 40% from the 3-point line all night long.
The Lakers had several solid contributions from their bench on Saturday, as Kyle Kuzma, Dwight Howard, and Rajon Rondo each scored over double-figures in the victory. Howard played only four minutes in Thursday’s loss to the Rockets but his 13 minutes, 12 points and eight rebounds were mighty productive as the Lakers tried to secure the win against the Warriors.
The Lakers have just two games remaining before the All-Star break, with Monday at home against the Phoenix Suns before closing out their pre-All-Star schedule with Wednesday night at the Denver Nuggets.
