Lakers were close to make a comeback at the end, but there wasn't enough time on the clock

Despite LeBrone James inspired performance and 108th career triple-double, Los Angeles Lakers failed to win again against Sacramento Kings, losing 125-110 on Wednesday night.

Domantas Sabonis had 29 points and 16 rebounds to push Kings to the win, although Lakers made a great fourth quarter comeback.

De’Aaron Fox and Kevin Huerter scored 28 points apiece for the Kings, who snapped Los Angeles’ three-game winning streak with their fifth win in six games over their local rivals.

James had 28 points, 11 assists and 10 rebounds to get his first triple-double of the season, breaking his tie with Jason Kidd for the fifth-most in NBA history.

The Kings have won three straight over the Lakers in Los Angeles, and their three top scorers staked them to a 26-point lead early in the fourth quarter. The Lakers surprisingly kept their starters in the game and made a 30-13 run, but ran out of time while never getting closer than nine points at the end.
