LOS ANGELES - Anthony Davis scored a game-high 33 points and delivered a pep talk to LeBron James as the Los Angeles Lakers handed the Miami Heat their first loss at home with a 113-110 victory on Friday .

Davis said he had to reprimand James, who finished with eight turnovers, because he could see the future Hall of Famer was struggling in the first half. "We have great chemistry. Us two are the leaders of this team, we are the head of the snake." James agreed with that critique and said he needed a wake-up call.

Harden scored 50 or more for the fifth time this season - including his 55 points against the Cleveland Cavaliers - and the fourth time in his past seven games. The rest of the NBA has combined for only five 50-plus games this season. In Minneapolis, Paul George and Kawhi Leonard combined for 88 points as the Los Angeles Clippers held on to beat the Minnesota Timberwolves 124-117 for their fourth consecutive victory.
