LeBron James keys Lakers’ 4th-quarter rally for 100-95 win over Kevin Durant’s short-handed Suns

Associated Press  

LOS ANGELES — When Kevin Durant scored in the final minutes, LeBron James answered. Anthony Davis had 30 points and 13 rebounds, James scored 10 of his 21 points while playing the entire fourth quarter, and the Los Angeles Lakers blew past Phoenix in the final minutes for a 100-95 victory over the short-handed Suns on Thursday night. It’s fun.” Durant nearly carried the Suns to an improbable victory with no help from injured Devin Booker and Bradley Beal, but James was ever-so-slightly more clutch while also adding nine assists and eight rebounds. Injuries, load management and health and safety protocols prevented them from playing in the previous 13 meetings between James’ Lakers and Durant’s Warriors, Nets and Suns. That’s what he’s been doing his whole career.. It’s always a battle playing against high-IQ players like that.” Eric Gordon added 15 points in Suns coach Vogel’s first trip back to face the Lakers, who fired him 18 months ago after three seasons and one NBA title.
