Pacers and Levert threw a ball to the Lakers in LA

Caris Levert with 30 points, Domandas Samponis with 20 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists (but had a sprain) and Malcolm Brogdon with 19 points led the Pacers, who went 30-19 in the last 9 minutes …struggling to defeat the Lakers, who at one point seemed to lose their motivation.

At the Lakers, LeBron James had 30 points and 12 rebounds and Taylor Horton-Tucker had 20 points, while Russell Westbrook stayed on 14 points with 5/17 shots and looked off the bench for Vogel for the last 4 minutes of the game.
