Lonnie Walker IV came off the bench to score 15 points, lifting the Lakers to a 104-101 victory Monday night over the Golden State Warriors and put Los Angeles on the brink of advancing to the NBA Western Conference finals.
Trailing by 3 points, the Warriors sealed their fate with a pair of turnovers in the final seconds. Walker's heroics overshadowed an outstanding performance from Steph Curry, who scored 31 points, had 14 assists, 10 rebounds and 3 steals.
For the Lakers, James scored 27 points and 9 rebounds while Anthony Davis added 23 points and 15 rebounds. Curry was magnificent all night. He continued his all around onslaught in the third quarter. His 4 points and 6 assists accounted for half of the Warriors 32 points in the quarter. That wasn't the case in Game 4. Davis had 19 points and 6 rebounds in the first half with James adding 11.
Free throw disparity continued to be a significant factor as it has all series. The Lakers were 9-of-9 from the free throw line in the half while the Warriors were 3-for-3.
