LeBron James and Anthony Davis combined for 69 points, but it was the dagger 3 from Austin Reaves to deliver the Los Angeles Lakers a 124-117 win over the Detroit Pistons.
Detroit was able to stay in the game thanks to an absolutely white hot performance from Bojan Bogdanovic, who scored a season-ighigh 38 points and scored 24 points in the third quarter.
Unfortunately, Detroit didn’t really have a solid game plan or go-to scorer late in the game, and the offense grinded to a halt. They were able to generate some solid offense off their defense, but when they had to do their work in the half court, the buckets became much tougher to come by.
