The LA Lakers continued their winning streak with a thrilling 113-109 overtime win over the New York Knicks, thanks in large part to Luka Doncic’s 32 points and LeBron James’ 31. The duo combined for an impressive performance, with Doncic also adding 12 assists and eight rebounds.
The Lakers fought back from a 10-point deficit in the fourth quarter to claim victory. This marks their eighth straight win, improving their record to 9-2 since Doncic’s debut last month.
Meanwhile, Golden State Warriors star Steph Curry continued his hot streak with a 40-point performance against the Brooklyn Nets. Curry scored an impressive basket from near the halfway line in the first half, and praised teammate Draymond Green for acknowledging its uniqueness, saying “That one, that’s not in the practice routine.”
The Lakers will face off against the Boston Celtics on Saturday as they begin a four-game road trip. The Chicago Bulls, Atlanta Hawks, Boston Celtics, and Houston Rockets also secured wins in their respective games.
