This win helps the Lakers improve their position in the standings to No. 6, sitting half a game behind both the\u00a0Denver Nuggets\u00a0and\u00a0Houston Rockets\u00a0ahead of them.<\/p>\n<p>LeBron James\u00a0ended the night with 35 points (13-22 FG), 12 rebounds, and 14 assists to notch his third consecutive triple-double, becoming the oldest player in NBA history to achieve this feat.\u00a0Anthony Davis\u00a0put up 21 points (6-16 FG), 14 rebounds, and three blocks.\u00a0Rui Hachimura\u00a0contributed with 19 points (6-7 FG) and seven rebounds while\u00a0Austin Reaves\u00a0had 18 points (5-14 FG) and six assists.<\/p>\n<p>Fans reacted to the Lakers win and LeBron&#8217;s incredible performance.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;LeBron with another night where I can\u2019t believe this is really happening. Not just the stat line but the effort, especially in the 4th,&#8221; said Ryen Russillo on\u00a0James&#8217; leading the Lakers to this win.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;LeBron James has 30 points, 12 assists, and 10 rebounds for his third straight triple-double and fourth of the season through 11 games. Last year, he had five in 71 games,&#8221; said ESPN&#8217;s Dave McMenamin on LeBron breaking his own record as the\u00a0oldest player to notch three consecutive triple-doubles.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-0\">\n<div class=\"m-in-content-ad not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-0\" data-zone-count=\"2\">\n<div class=\"not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d m-in-content-ad is-empty not-filled\">\n<div id=\"ad-in_content-a853fb319a0e4fceb98019ef3b35eea6\" data-google-query-id=\"CJDx0ra624kDFfLJFgUdpegBMg\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<p>&#8220;I hate that I have to say this every time.

He\u2019s never slowing down,&#8221; said one fan who can&#8217;t believe\u00a0LeBron consistently disproving his haters\u00a0with every season he plays.<\/p>\n<p>The Grizzlies were led by\u00a0Jaren Jackson Jr. putting up 29 points (10-20 FG) and seven rebounds. Three Grizzlies players had 15 points with Marcus Smart (3-5 FG), Santi Aldama (6-14 FG), and former Laker Scotty Pippen Jr.\u00a0(6-14 FG)<strong>\u00a0<\/strong>all trying to hand the Lakers the upset loss. Zach Edey (3-8 FG) and Luke Kennard (4-7 FG) had 12 points apiece.<\/p>\n<p>Anthony Davis came into this game with an\u00a0eye injury sustained in the Lakers&#8217; win over the Toronto Raptors. He looked compromised, often covering his face on the bench due to discomfort from the bright lights and looking uncharacteristically cautious on the court. Despite his slow night, LeBron made the difference with his monster performance to lead the Lakers to the win.<\/p>\n<aside class=\"m-in-content-ad-row l-inline mm-in-content-ad-row--in-content not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-1\">\n<div class=\"m-in-content-ad not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d\" data-ad-group=\"in_content-1\" data-zone-count=\"2\">\n<div class=\"not-size-a not-size-b not-size-d m-in-content-ad is-empty not-filled\">\n<div id=\"ad-in_content-0dc8cba4ed874521bb3438dcf1264bb2\" data-google-query-id=\"CLSUk8G624kDFYvsFgUd-hMBqQ\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/aside>\n<p>The Grizzlies are dealing with another injury crisis on their roster, entering this game without\u00a0Ja Morant,\u00a0Brandon Clarke, Vince Williams Jr, Desmond Bane, Cam Spencer, and GG Jackson II.
