NBA Results: Celtics Triumph Over Lakers, LeBron James’ Injury, and Curry’s Historic Milestone

The Boston Celtics ended the Los Angeles Lakers’ eight-game winning streak in the NBA with a decisive 111-101 victory. With just 6:44 left on the clock, LeBron James exited the game due to an injury, which early reports suggest is a sprain that could sideline him for weeks. Jayson Tatum delivered an outstanding performance, nearly achieving a triple-double with 40 points, 12 rebounds, and 8 assists, while Jaylen Brown added another 31 points. Now, the NBA champions boast a record of 46-18, placing second in the East and third overall in the NBA, trailing only the Cavaliers and Thunder. Luka Dončić scored 34 points, grabbed 8 rebounds, and dished out 3 assists for the Lakers, while LeBron James contributed 22 points, 14 rebounds, and 9 assists before heading to the locker room. In another NBA matchup, the Warriors defeated the Pistons 115-110 as Stephen Curry scored 32 points, becoming the 26th player in NBA history to surpass 25,000 career points. The 36-year-old Curry hit four three-pointers and needs seven more to become the first player ever to reach 4,000 career threes.
