Memphis (14:22) - LA Lakers (19:17) 99: 104
It was a meeting between two of the league's big stars, both at their peak, in excellent shape, only one was 37 and the other 22, and it ended in a big win for G. The Morant on LeBron James. Morant scored 41 points, added 10 rebounds, 2 steals and 2 blocks, and set a season-high 6 threes (6 from 7 over the arc) en route to a duel between the two hottest scorers.
On the other hand, the day before he celebrates 37, LeBron gave another impressive evening of basketball, with 37 points, 13 rebounds, 7 assists and a season-high 8 threes, but that was not enough for the fading Lakers, who have lost for the sixth time in the last seven games. LeBron completed a sixth straight game that he scored 30 points or more, but the Lakers won during them only once, when tonight James and his team were unable to even throw to the basket in the last offense, when they were 102: 99 behind and given a chance to equalize.
The Lakers already led 66:80 during the third quarter, but were unable to maintain the advantage.
6:50 minutes to go Tios Jones set up a reversal, Morant added two straight threes and set up 92:99, and while LeBron kept his team in the picture, he eventually went down undefeated again.
Desmond Bain added 20 points for the Grizzlies, Russell Westbrook again finished with a useless triple double (16 points, 10 rebounds, 12 assists).
