The Los Angeles Lakers secured an 89-88 victory over the San Antonio Spurs in the Summer League. They did so largely thanks to Dalton Knecht, who scored 25 points.
The Spurs appeared to be in control all game, taking a 14-point lead at one point. San Antonio also won all three quarters and looked to cruise their way to victory.
Then, the Lakers exploded in the fourth quarter. LA scored 32 points, while going on a devastating 20-5 run at the end of the fourth quarter.
The game was capped by a putback dunk from Darius Bazley with 13 seconds left, giving the Lakers the lead for good. Bazley had a great game himself, leading the Lakers in scoring with 27 points on 8-10 shooting while adding 13 rebounds.
The real test for the Lakers will be this Thursday when they face off against Cooper Flagg and the Dallas Mavericks.
