Behind Luka Doncic’s 35 points, 13 assists and five steals, the Lakers edged the Spurs 118-116 in Los Angeles, sealing a fifth straight win after a furious fourth quarter rally. Los Angeles closed on a 21-10 run, but Marcus Smart’s inbound violation after Kelly Olynyk’s putback gave San Antonio a last gasp with 1.2 seconds left. Julian Champagnie drew a foul and missed the first free throw; the second miss went untipped at the horn. Deandre Ayton had 22 and 10, and Victor Wembanyama scored 19 before fouling out in a foul plagued finish.
