The final meeting between future Hall of Famers Dwyane Wade and LeBron James did not disappoint.

In a back-and-forth game, the Lakers outlasted the Heat 108-105 on Monday at Staples Center. It marked Miami’s first loss on its season-long six-game trip, as it’s now 2-1 through the first three games of this stretch away from home.

In a contest that included 13 lead changes and 12 ties, it came down to the final few minutes.

The Heat pulled ahead 96-90 with 7:18 to play, but the Lakers responded with a 13-2 run to take a five-point lead with 3:55 remaining.
