Ball, Bridges Power Hornets Past Lakers
The Philippine Star
|February 21, 2025
LaMelo Ball sparked a second-half fightback as the struggling Charlotte Hornets upset the Los Angeles Lakers 100-97 on Wednesday
-
Point guard Ball finished with 27 points, including five three-pointers, to help the Hornets complete only their fifth road win of the season. Miles Bridges led Charlotte's scoring with 29 points.
The Lakers, with LeBron James and Luka Doncic both starting, looked poised for a routine victory after opening up a 13-point cushion with a 65-52 lead late in the third quarter.
But some inspired shooting by Ball - and the ejection of Lakers shooting guard Austin Reaves - swung the game back in favor of the Hornets.
From trailing by 13, the Hornets went off on a 17-1 run and Seth Curry nailed a 26-foot three-pointer to put the visitors 69-66 up heading into the fourth quarter.
