LA Lakers vs Houston Rockets Game Preview:
The Lakers extended their win streak to five games after a statement 127-125 overtime victory against the Denver Nuggets on Saturday.
Austin Reaves forced extra minutes after rebounding his intentionally missed free throw, and it was Luka Doncic who sealed the win, hitting a baseline fadeaway with 0.5 seconds left.
LeBron James was back in the lineup after missing three consecutive games. He played a season-high 40 minutes, finishing with 17 points, 6 rebounds, and 5 assists.
“I think it feels like we’re coalescing right now in a really nice way. Still got a long way to go… but certainly optimistic with how we handled this stretch of games. … It’s big time,” said Lakers head coach JJ Redick after the win.
The Lakers are currently third in the Western Conference with a 0.5 lead on the Rockets.
Tonight’s game is the second of three meetings between the two teams who will face off again this Wednesday night. Houston won the first matchup on Christmas Day. The Lakers will need to win both games to claim the tiebreaker over the Rockets.
James and Kevin Durant will face off for the 45th time tonight. The two superstars have combined for 6 championships, 38 All-Star appearances, 32 All-NBA teams, and 76,368 points over the course of their careers.
