LOS ANGELES – The Los Angeles Lakers slid to a third straight loss, falling 110-96 to the Miami Heat.
LeBron James had a rare off-night, finishing with just 12 points after shooting six-of-18 from the field, leaving Anthony Davis to lead the Lakers with 29 points.
Miami, however, was always in front after taking the lead early in the first quarter, with a balanced offensive performance seeing eight Heat players make double figures.
The Lakers were left ruing an inability to convert from 3-point range, with the team making just four of 30 attempts from beyond the arc.
