Los Angeles, Jan 20 – (Adnkronos) – Caris LeVert scores 22 points in the fourth period alone and leads the 35-24 run with which the Pacers (16-29) close the match in Los Angeles and beat the Lakers at home (22-23) for 111 -104 aggravating the crisis of the yellow-violet, who keep Russell Westbrook on the bench in the final, unable to find continuity even against an opponent who has returned from four defeats in a row and the second victory in the last 12 games. by the Lakers and closes with 30 points a game of 12/16 shooting, 3/4 from the bow and with 8 rebounds: he is the one who places four baskets in a row in the last minutes of the match and puts the hosts on the ropes, beaten also thanks to Malcolm Brogdon’s 19 points and Justin Holiday’s 11 points. A separate discussion must be made for another much talked about player who ended up on the market for over a month after the Pacers decided to demobilize the team and try to restart by selling the precious pieces of the roster: Domantas Sabonis closes in triple double, author of 20 points, 12 rebounds and 10 assists – complete with a triple that gives the final blow to the yellow-violet, who have returned to have a record below 50% of victories (22-23). yet another high-level performance by LeBron James: 30 points and above all 12 rebounds that allow him to reach 10,000 in his career (figures touched only by the best all-time centers in NBA history), but his effort is not rewarded in terms of results (as the -20 of plus / minus tells us). Talen Horton-Tucker collected 20 points off the bench, while Westbrook scores 14 shooting 5/17 from the field (and hitting the target four times from three points out of six attempts).
