The crowd gasped when Austin Reaves intentionally missed a second free throw. They then exhaled when Reaves grabbed a rebound and sank a floater to force overtime.

The crowd cheered when 41-year-old LeBron James dove on the floor to secure a looseball, while the Lakers trailed by one with 54.6 seconds left in regulation.

Those three breath-taking moments explains he Lakers’ current circumstances. The Lakers (42-35) hold a ½ game lead for the Western Conference’s third seed. They have won five consecutive games, including three against playoff contenders. They have shown that Dončić, Reaves and James can all thrive among each other, individually and with their supporting cast.

Fitting on a night when nearly every Lakers player made team-oriented plays, James dished off another assist to Dončić on his late-game heroics.

“Big-time shot by a generational player,” Lakers forward LeBron James said. “It’s going to be the first of many game-winners of his in a Laker uniform.”
