The Lakers were lifted up on a clutch go-ahead 3-pointer from Talen Horton-Tucker with 20.3 seconds left in overtime to clinch the game for Los Angeles. THT scored 13 points, 5 rebounds, and 10 assists.
Kyle Kuzma led the way for the Lakers off the bench with 23 points on 9-of-17 shooting and 4-of-8 from downtown.
