The Warriors struggled to produce enough offensive power as Stephen Curry missed his 10th straight game for Golden State still nursing a right knee injury and newly acquired center Kristaps Porzingis sat out with an illness. Gui Santos scored 14 points to lead the Warriors in his fifth straight double-digit game and 12th in the last 13 --- and this one came after he received a multi-year contract extension earlier in the day. Gary Payton II contributed 12 points for Golden State, his seventh game out of the last nine in double digits. James went 7 for 13 from the floor with four 3-pointers after he shot around with 11-year-old daughter Zhuri before the game after completing his own warmup in a sweet moment. The Lakers snapped a three-game losing streak overall and a three-game skid on the road with just their third win in the last eight --- and also third in eight on the road against the Pacific Division this season. Austin Reaves scored 18 points on 7-of-11 shooting for Los Angeles, Luke Kennard had 16 points with four 3s off the bench and Deandre Ayton grabbed 10 rebounds. The Lakers hit 12 of their initial 21 shots with five 3-pointers to jump ahead 33-16, while Golden State began 2 for 17 from long range and wound up just 12 for 44.

Up next Lakers: Host Sacramento on Sunday night to complete a road-home back-to-back. Warriors: Host the Clippers on Monday night. ___ AP NBA: https://apnews.com/NBA
