cpl standing – Strack-Zimmermann – NBA/James roared a new season high of 48 points, and the Lakers sent the Rockets 11 consecutive defeats
Despite his dissatisfaction with the final judgment of the 76-member game, LeBron James still regained his mood in the face of today’s “back-to-back” game against the Rockets. He made 16 of 26 shots, including 5 3-pointers and 12 free throws.
He scored a new high of 48 points in the roaring season, with 9 assists and 8 rebounds. He led the Lakers to block the opponent’s counterattack, winning 140-132, ending the recent three consecutive defeats.
This is the third time James has scored at least 40 points this season, and the previous highest was 47 points against the Hawks.
Although the Lakers maintained the lead for most of the time, winning 16 points at one time, the Rockets staged strong counter-attacks in the late third quarter and the fourth quarter respectively, reducing the gap to single digits for many times, and James scored 20 points in the fourth quarter, successfully defending the home victory.
The substitute group led by Russell Westbrook performed well.
Westbrook scored 24 points, 5 rebounds and 4 assists, Kendrick Nunn scored 15 points, and Wenyen Gabriel scored 14 points and 9 rebounds. In addition, the Lakers made only two mistakes in the whole game, setting a record low.
The Rockets tried to catch up with the score many times in the game, but they could not outrun the opponent. In addition, James could not stop the play in the fourth quarter, so they could only swallow 11 consecutive defeats.
Alperen Sengun scored 33 points, 15 rebounds and 6 assists, Jalen Green scored 23 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists, Eric Gordon scored 19 points, 8 assists, KJ Martin Jr. scored 17 points, 7 rebounds and 2 blocks, and Jabari Smith scored 14 points, 4 rebounds and 4 assists.
