The Lakers follow up their trade for Luka Dončić by adding talented young center Mark Williams from the Hornets.

LeBron James poured in 42 points to join Michael Jordan as the only 40-year-olds to score 40 points in an NBA game as the host Los Angeles Lakers notched a 120-112 victory over the Golden State Warriors on Thursday night.

James has a season-high 42 points, but the Lakers squander most of a 26-point lead before hanging on for a 120-112 victory, their 10th win in the past 12 games. Curry scores 37.

Bronny finished the game with three points on 1-for-1 shooting from beyond the arc, one assist, one steal, and one turnover. He also went 0-for-2 from the free-throw line. Bronny made his first three-pointer of his NBA career.
