Though Luka Dončić’s fourth-quarter explosion showed he is capable of keeping the Lakers in big games, LeBron James’ fourth-quarter groin injury will loom large after this loss, which snapped Los Angeles’ eight-game win streak. With 6:44 left in the game, James called for a timeout and eventually headed to the locker room with a left groin strain.

LeBron James left the game with an injury as the Los Angeles Lakers’ eight-game win streak came to an end following a loss to the Boston Celtics on Saturday.

Boston will need to play some of their better ball and have some of their better availability to beat one of the hotter teams in the NBA.
