NBA scores, highlights: LeBron James’ Lakers battle the new-look 76ers, Warriors face off against the Heat

There are five games of NBA action on Sunday, highlighted by a battle between two teams that made a lot of noise at the trade deadline: one for what they did, and one for what they didn’t do, as the new-look 76ers will host LeBron James and the Los Angeles Lakers in a Sunday matinee. 

The game between the two teams is the second of the season, with the Sixers pulling out a win over the Lakers in Los Angeles less than two weeks ago. LeBron was sidelined with a groin injury for that game, however, and he will be looking to alter the outcome in this one. 

Additionally, to close out the night, the defending-champion Warriors will host a Miami Heat team that is fighting for playoff positioning.

Kuzma erupts for 23 points in the first quarter

The Los Angeles Lakers held onto Kyle Kuzma at the trade deadline and he is paying dividends for the Purple and Gold on Sunday by catching fire in the opening 12 minutes of action to get the team off to a hot start. 

Luka starts off the game in style

Luka Doncic’s impressive rookie season has made him one of the game’s most intriguing players and he continued his strong start to his NBA career on Sunday by turning the corner on the defense and hammering home a slam dunk to start the game.
