The Los Angeles Lakers visit to New York City did not go as planned. The Lakers lost to the New York Knicks in a Sunday matinee, blowing a late fourth-quarter lead.
New York ended the game on a 13-1 run the final 3:14 of the game to come away with a 124-123 victory. For a game that involved two teams that have embraced losing and lottery balls the remainder of the season, this was quite an entertaining game.
With the loss, the Lakers record now drops to 31-39 on the season, as they were swept by the Knicks in their two meetings this season.
