Lakers erase 19-point, 4th-quarter deficit, outlast Bucks in 2OT stunner without LeBron James

The Los Angeles Lakers didn't need LeBron James to win a double-overtime thriller.

Anthony Davis and Austin Reaves led the team to a 128-124 win over the Milwaukee Bucks on Tuesday, erasing a 19-point, fourth-quarter lead just to force the first overtime. To reach the second overtime, Davis had to snuff out a would-be game-winner from Damian Lillard.

The win improves the Lakers' record to 6-4 this season without James.

Davis posted 34 points, 23 rebounds, four blocks, two steals and two assists in a career-high 52 minutes, while Reaves had a triple-double with 29 points, 14 rebounds and 10 assists.
