LeBron James marks NBA milestone despite Lakers' victory in season opener

Posted : 11 November 2023
In the NBA In-Season Tournament opener, the LA Lakers secured a 122-119 win against the Phoenix Suns, although LeBron James notably marked the occasion by registering his 5,000th career turnover, a first in NBA history. Despite this unenviable statistic, James showcased his brilliance, contributing 32 points, 11 rebounds, and six assists. Grayson Allen capitalized on one of these turnovers, briefly boosting the Suns' lead, yet it made little impact on the overall outcome against the Lakers.
 
The game saw an intense battle with the Suns initially ahead at 51-40, with the unfortunate turnover attributed to James, leading to an increased gap for the Suns. Although this personal milestone might tarnish the moment, it hardly diminishes James' extraordinary career in which countless passes have contributed to his success at the highest level.
 
The Lakers rallied in the fourth quarter, orchestrating an 11-0 run that ultimately secured their victory. Anthony Davis played a significant role, contributing 18 points, supporting the Lakers in their first away triumph in six attempts.
 
In other tournament matches, the Dallas Mavericks triumphed over the Los Angeles Clippers with a resounding 144-126 win, Kyrie Irving starring with 27 points for the hosts. The Philadelphia 76ers clinched a 114-106 victory against the Detroit Pistons, propelled by Joel Embiid's 33 points, marking their seventh consecutive win. Meanwhile, the Minnesota Timberwolves secured their fifth consecutive victory, with Karl-Anthony Towns spearheading a 117-110 win over the San Antonio Spurs, despite Victor Wembanyama's notable 29 points.
 
 Other match outcomes saw the Houston Rockets prevailing over the New Orleans Pelicans with a 104-101 win, the Charlotte Hornets beating the Washington Wizards 124-117, the Sacramento Kings emerging victorious against the Oklahoma City Thunder at 105-98, and the Utah Jazz securing a 127-121 win against the Memphis Grizzlies.
