LEBRON ➡️ AD HAMMER. 🔨 (🎥: @Lakers) https://t.co/oc4BLRN7nQ
LAL are shooting 51.5%, despite being 1 for 11 from 3, thanks to their 66 paint points, to Indy's 34. Pacers within 8 nonetheless thanks to 5 more made FT's, and 5 more made 3's, plus LAL having 6 more turnovers.
LEBRON LOBS TO AD 😤 (via @NBA) https://t.co/zelnW5kTwk
LAL thought they'd managed a 6-0 run to close the 3rd, with Davis splitting FT's, a Prince 3 (LAL's 1st), and a Davis dunk from LeBron, pushing their biggest lead to 11. But after a LeBron TO with 2.8 sec. left, Indy pushed the inbounds and got a buzzer-beating 3 to cut it to 8.
Lakers 90, Pacers 82, end 3rd Q. Davis 27 ps., 16 reb. for LAL.
LeBron to AD 🎦 https://t.co/TI0DpgwBck
