The Lakers’ road trip magic ended on Tuesday night at Madison Square Garden.
The Knicks beat the Lakers 113-109 in overtime. Kristaps Porzingis scored 37 points to lead all scorers. Kentavious Caldwell-Pope led the Lakers with 24 points. With his family watching from their courtside seats, Lonzo Ball scored 17 points with eight rebounds and six assists in his New York City debut.
Despite taking a 10-point lead in the second quarter, the Lakers couldn’t hang on. By halftime their lead was down to one point, and the Knicks led for much of the second half.
