LeBron James led the Los Angeles Lakers to a thrilling 115-113 victory over the Golden State Warriors on Christmas Day, marking his 11th win in 19 appearances on the holiday. James contributed 31 points, shooting 12-for-22, and dished out 10 assists with just one turnover. Despite an early injury to teammate Anthony Davis, who sprained his left ankle and did not return, the Lakers held on. Davis, however, reassured fans that he would be ready for the next game against the Sacramento Kings. Stephen Curry of the Warriors was exceptional in the fourth quarter, scoring 17 of his 38 points, including a game-tying 31-foot three-pointer with 7.6 seconds left. The NBA’s Christmas Day games also featured standout performances like Mikal Bridges’ 41 points for the Knicks, Victor Wembanyama’s 42 points and 18 rebounds for the Spurs, and a combined 60 points from Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid in the 76ers’ upset over the Celtics.
