Trae Young led the Atlanta Hawks to a 134-132 overtime victory against the Los Angeles Lakers, capping the game with a decisive three-pointer with eight seconds remaining. Young posted an impressive double-double with 31 points and a career-high 20 assists, as the Hawks extended their winning streak to six games, improving their record to 13-11. Despite standout performances from LeBron James, who recorded a triple-double with 39 points, 11 assists, 10 rebounds, hit six three-pointers, and surpassed 41,000 career points, and Anthony Davis, who contributed 38 points, 10 rebounds, and 8 assists, the Lakers were unable to secure the win. LeBron also made a clutch chase-down block in overtime, but turnovers plagued the Lakers, with James and Davis combining for ten. Max Christie's critical block on Trae Young at the end of regulation sent the game into overtime. The loss marks the Lakers' third consecutive defeat on their road trip, bringing their record to 12-11.
