LOS ANGELES – The Los Lakers bagged their second victory of the season with a pulsating 120-117 overtime triumph against the New Orleans Pelicans at the Crypto.com Arena on Tuesday (Wednesday, Manila time).

Matt Ryan was the hero for the Lakers, draining a game-tying 3-pointer on the buzzer to make it 111-111 and force overtime.

Lonnie Walker IV led the Lakers scoring with 28 points while LeBron James and Anthony Davis scored 20 points apiece.

The Lakers, who lost their opening five games of the season, improved to 2-5 with the win.
