When Kevin Durant notched in the final minutes, LeBron James was doing the same. These 2 legends were showing phenomenal basketball in their 1st game head-to-head in almost 5 years.
Despite Kevin being better in the 1st 3 quarters, in the end, he failed to win the match for his team alone.

On the other side, James had a huge help. Anthony Davis finished with 30 points and 13 boards, LeBron notched 10 of his 21 points while being on the court the entire 4th quarter, and the LA Lakers comeback to triumph 100-95 against Phoenix Suns at crypto.com Arena, Los Angeles, CA.
Kevin Durant notched 39 points and grabbed 11 rebounds for Phoenix, and the player moved into 12th place on the league’s career scoring list.
Phoenix will play at home against Utah Jazz on Saturday, while Los Angeles Lakers will visit Sacramento Kings on Sunday.
