LeBron James Post For The Second Straight Triple Double

LOS ANGELES (AFP) - LeBron James has currently delivered his second straight triple double as the Los Angeles Lakers has won their fifth game in a continuous row for the first time ever in over a year with a victory, 103-96 against the team of San Antonio Spurs on Sunday (Nov 3) night.
James finished and completed with 21 points, 11 rebounds and 13 assists for the energetic Lakers, who have skipped the playoffs six seasons in a row and completed the entire 2018-19 season without winning the five games which were consecutive.
The Spurs has kept it close in the fourth thanks to Dejounte Murray's 16 with consecutive San Antonio points. He made a layup with in only four minutes to play for tying the contest 90-90. Los Angeles then continued on a 9-2 to hold off the Spurs down the stretch and get the desired triumph.
James said that it was about him and his team and how they could execute on the offensive end which they did, he also told that he got great looks; he takes so much pride on defence. We want to work to keep the guys uncomfortable. We held a great team to 40 per cent shooting and under 100 points.
Anthony Davis has finished with 25 points and 11 rebounds for the Lakers, who are working to reconstruct their team around its player James, who also had a triple double two nights earlier against Dallas.
Avery Bradley also added 16 points while Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Dwight Howard had with themselves 14 points each. Howard also grabbed a game-high with 13 rebounds for the Lakers, who improved to 5-1 on the season.
Lakers head coach Frank Vogel was pleased with the play of journeyman reserve player Howard, who was with his fifth team in the last five seasons.
The former first overall draft picked by Orlando in 2004 is past his prime and as a starter in the league and also appears to be more comfortable coming off the bench.
