Lakers-Warriors wasn’t all that thrilling of a game … until the final minutes
Austin Reaves drove past Andrew Wiggins to hit a layup with a second left as the Lakers beat the Warriors, 115-113, at Chase Center.
It was a back-and-forth game for the most part, but the Lakers went on a 7-0 run to go up 104-94 with 3:27 remaining in the fourth quarter.
Steph Curry willed Golden State back with consecutive 3s to tie the game at 113 as the Lakers completely fell asleep on defense on the second 3 with 6.3 seconds left.
That set up the big moment for Reaves, who finished with 26 points, 10 rebounds and 10 assists for the Lakers, who were 4.5-point underdogs at BetMGM.
Curry led the Warriors with 38 points and 8 3-pointers, with Andrew Wiggins adding 21 points.
Newly acquired Dennis Schröder continued to struggle, shooting 3-of-10 from the floor for 11 points, but he did have five assists and did some good things defensively.
