LeBron James guided Los Angeles Lakers to thrash Houston Rockets in a thrilling NBA encounter.

LeBron James led the Los Angeles Lakers to a narrow 105-104 victory over the Houston Rockets, scoring a season-high 37 points in a thrilling NBA encounter.

Alperen Sengun’s layup tied it with four seconds remaining when the Lakers called timeout. Austin Reaves passed it into James, who was fouled by Tari Eason as he drove inside. James missed the first free throw, but made the second.

Houston, which did not have a timeout left, got the ball to midcourt, but Brooks’ 3-point attempt was offline.

“I liked how we battled back and kept fighting. We just didn’t play smart at the end,” Rockets coach Ime Udoka said.

James scored 13 points in the fourth quarter and gave the Lakers their fifth win in the last six games.

Earlier in the game, the NBA’s All-Time leading scorer became the fourth player in league history with at least 10,500 assists (he finished with eight and is at 10,504).

He also tied Vince Carter for seventh on the 3-pointers list with 2,290, and moved past Clyde Drexler for eighth on the steals list at 2,208.

On the other hand, Boston Celtics extended their winning streak to six matches with a 102-100 victory over Memphis Grizzlies, while the Detroit Pistons lost for the 11th straight game, going down 142-113 to the Toronto Raptors.

Philadelphia 76ers beat the Brooklyn Nets 121-99 and defending champions Denver Nuggets lost 121-109 to the Cleveland Cavaliers.
