LeBron James

SF, Los Angeles Lakers

LeBron James was his usual self on Saturday against the Pacers, albeit in a losing effort, going 13-for-24 from the floor for 31 points in 35 minutes on the court.

As was to be expected, the Lakers weren't going all out on Saturday and will continue to take it easy for their final two seeding games. They have locked up the top seed in the West, and it was honestly somewhat surprising to see both James and Anthony Davis receive 35 minutes apiece. This was a close, intense game down to the wire and TJ Warren — yes, him– led the Pacers to victory once again. LeBron will likely be used sparingly to close out the 'regular' season.
