TORONTO (AP) — Rui Hachimura made a 3-pointer off a pass from LeBron James as time expired to give the Los Angeles Lakers a 123-120 victory over the Toronto Raptors on Thursday night.
The assist to Hachimura ensured that James’ NBA-record streak of 1,297 consecutive double-digit scoring games in the regular season ended. He finished with eight points, shooting just 4 for 17. He went 0 for 5 from 3-point range and did not attempt a free throw. His assist to Hachimura was his 11th.
Austin Reaves scored 44 points, 22 in the third quarter, as the Lakers overcame Luka Doncic’s absence.
After Toronto’s Brandon Ingram came up empty on a layup with 23 seconds left in the fourth, James fed Hachimura in the corner for the winning basket. It was Hachimura’s only made shot of the final quarter.
