LeBron James' new record with the Los Angeles Lakers

The Los Angeles Lakers secured a commanding 129-101 victory on the road against the Golden State Warriors (31-29), in a game where LeBron James stood out. The veteran forward nailed his first four three-point attempts on Saturday night and, in doing so, reached 1,000 triples with the Angeleno franchise.

At 41 years old, James became the second player in Lakers history to achieve this feat, joining Kobe Bryant as the only ones to reach this milestone wearing the gold and purple jersey.

The five players with the most three-pointers in Lakers history are:

1. Kobe Bryant: 1,827

2. LeBron James: 1,002

3. Derek Fisher: 846

4. Nick Van Exel: 750

5. Byron Scott: 595

James' four triples in the first half were his best mark in a single half this season. He went into halftime as the game's leading scorer with 20 points and finished with 22 points, 9 assists, and 7 rebounds, leading the victory that allowed the Lakers (35-24) to break a three-game losing streak.

After the break, it was Doncic's turn. The guard, who celebrated his 27th birthday that same Saturday, connected on four three-pointers in the early minutes of the third quarter and ended his special day with 26 points, 8 assists, and 6 rebounds. Austin Reaves also contributed 18 points to complete the visiting team's offensive effort.

Golden State quickly fell behind after a first quarter where they were outperformed by their opponent's outside shooting accuracy. Without Kristaps Porzingis, absent due to illness, and without Stephen Curry, still recovering from a right knee injury, the Warriors couldn't keep up with a Lakers team that went 19 of 41 from three-point range.

Curry missed his tenth consecutive game and provided an update on his status during a televised interview amidst the game.

"I'm feeling better. It's a strange injury," he explained. "It's unpredictable how it will evolve, but every day since the All-Star week, I've noticed progress. That's all I can ask for, and I hope to return soon."

However, when asked about an immediate reassessment, the guard acknowledged that his return will take a bit longer.

"I haven't hit the court yet," he noted. "I'm trying to stay in shape and strengthen the rest of my body, knowing that, at this point, when you come back, it's practically a sprint to the playoffs. When I do return, it will also be a matter of pain tolerance, but you don't want something like this to drag on because it can worsen."
