LOS ANGELES, Jan 14, (AP): Victor Wembanyama had 23 points and eight rebounds, Harrison Barnes scored 10 of his 17 points in the fourth quarter, and the San Antonio Spurs beat the Lakers 126-102 on Monday night in Los Angeles' first game back from two postponements due to the wildfires devastating the area.
Anthony Davis had 30 points and 13 rebounds, and LeBron James added 18 points and eight assists for the Lakers in their first home game since catastrophic wildfires killed at least 24 and burned thousands of structures.
The Lakers have lost three straight, but their previous two scheduled games were postponed, and they hadn't played since last Tuesday in Dallas.
Devin Vassell and Stephon Castle scored 23 points apiece for San Antonio.
The Spurs dominated the fourth quarter, making a 25-9 run in the first nine minutes to take control of a game that was tied entering the period.
The Lakers retired Michael Cooper's No. 21 in a halftime ceremony honoring the Hall of Fame guard who won five championships in the Showtime era.
