LeBron James (35-12-7) Fuels Huge Lakers Comeback in Scintillating Battle of L.A. (130-125, OT)

A busy night in the NBA saw 26 teams in action (13 games), and the Lakers-Clippers exclamation point to end the night was one to watch. The Lakers rallied from 15 points down to force overtime before a frenetic finish that included an epic alley-oop from Austin Reaves to LeBron James. LeBron proved he still has a lot to give in Year 21, coming close to a triple-double (35 points, 12 rebounds, 7 assists) in the overtime thriller. He was one of multiple stars who showed up for the intra-city duel. This game was awesome. Both teams are off to 3-2 starts.
