LeBron Sets NBA Minutes Record in Kings Sweep

The Los Angeles Lakers secured victories against the Sacramento Kings in two consecutive games at Golden 1 Center. In the first match, LeBron James set a new NBA record for regular-season minutes, contributing 19 points, while Anthony Davis added 21 points and 20 rebounds to clinch a 113-100 win. The Kings struggled with slow starts and turnovers, compounded by Davis’s defense and the Lakers' offensive rebounds. In the second game, a controversial out-of-bounds call favored the Lakers, allowing them to edge out a 103-99 victory despite De’Aaron Fox's 31-point effort for the Kings. The Kings demonstrated inconsistency, often alternating between strong offensive and defensive performances but failing to synchronize both. This inconsistency has resulted in a disappointing season so far, reflected in their current standing and losing streak.
