LOS ANGELES - LeBron James had 32 points, 14 rebounds and 10 assists, and Anthony Davis became the first Laker since Kobe Bryant in 2005-06 to open the NBA season with three straight 30-plus-point games, as Los Angeles rode a last-quarter surge to down the visiting Sacramento Kings 131-127 on Oct 26.
But James, who scored half of his points in a remarkable three-minute stretch at the start of the fourth quarter, told ESPN: "Listen, I could do that at 22, but at almost 40, I don't need to be doing it for four quarters.
"I have the luxury of having a MVP (Most Valuable Player)-caliber player next to me (in Anthony Davis). AR (Austin Reaves) can get it going in bunches. D-Lo (D'Angelo Russell) can catch fire. Rui (Hachimura) has been consistent, and he can get going and score in bunches, as well.
"So, this team is not built for me to have 16-point quarters through all four quarters. That's not how it's constructed and nor should it be."
All five Lakers starters scored in double figures. Davis had 31 points after scoring 35 against the Phoenix Suns and 36 against the Minnesota Timberwolves.
