LeBron James scores 27 points and Anthony Davis returns to form, finishing with 38 points and 12 rebounds in the Lakers' 131-125 win over Toronto.
The people here know. For the 75th time in his NBA career, LeBron James stepped onto a court to face the Toronto Raptors. And before Friday, James’ team had won 56 of them, including a trio of playoff series. Still, the fans in Toronto always enjoy James’ annual appearance in Canada, cheering each time as he enters the game — only to watch him leave town with another win.
But James’ play-making — he had 27 points and 10 assists — combined with big shots from Rui Hachimura and D’Angelo Russell and a return to form for Anthony Davis all kept the Raptors from ever pushing in front. Gradey Dick scored 31 points and had a look to cut it to three with less than a minute, but the shot rimmed out. RJ Barrett scored 33 to lead the Raptors, with Toronto playing without starters Scottie Barnes and Immanuel Quickley.
