LeBron James, Lakers ride monster third quarter to victory over Magic

The Los Angeles Lakers returned to Staples Center on Sunday to face off against the rebuilding Orlando Magic looking to build off Friday’s win at Oklahoma City. Though Orlando hung with the Lakers in the first half, L.A. turned it on in the third quarter to demolish another team with one of the worst rosters in the NBA, manhandling the Magic 106-94.

Lebron James turned in another dominant performance with 30 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists for his 101st career triple-double. James continues to look less and less bothered by his abdomen injury, which is a great sign for the Lakers.
