After trailing 79-77 with five minutes left, James and Davis combined for a late run of 15 points to put the Lakers up 92-83 with just over 30 seconds remaining.

The win moves the Nets to four wins and four losses for the season.

The Chicago Bulls fought back from an 18-point first-quarter deficit to defeat the Portland Trail Blazers 111-108.
