The lakers defeated the wizards in overtime 134-131 on the second night of a back-to-back.
It wasn’t exactly a game to be proud of as washington is an awful 9-50, but a victory would also lift the lakers to 33-28.
La overcame arguably their worst defensive performance of the season by putting 40 points and 15 rebounds from anthony davis, 31 points and nine assists from lebron james, to avoid embarrassment on their home floor. For the month of february, la is now 9-3.
On saturday, la will face the reigning nba champion and conference rival denver nuggets.
