Kobe Bryant gave the Lakers a late lead, but Paul George finished off the purple and gold.
The Los Angeles Lakers kept the final score close in a 89-87 loss, but they looked out of sorts most of the night against the Indiana Pacers. Kobe Bryant took over in the fourth quarter, scoring 11 straight points for the Lakers while draining three three-pointers in a row to give the Lakers the lead. The crowd roared behind every shot, but it was too much Paul George down the stretch while the Lakers struggled to execute their offense through the final possessions.
