The next game from the series – 6 will be on Friday at Staples Center in California.
LeBron James scored only 15 points as the best player for the Lakers tonight was Anthony Davis with 31 points and 19 boards, but it wasn’t enough, and now the franchise from Los Angeles will try to end the series with a victory at home.
