Stephen Curry scored 26 points, Kelly Oubre Jr. had 23 and the Golden State Warriors overcame a 14-point deficit in the fourth quarter on Monday to beat the Los Angeles Lakers 115-113.

A LeBron James 3-pointer left the Lakers up 97-83 early in the last quarter, before the Warriors’ reaction. They were 106-97 with 5:52 to play before a 15-2 record that gave Golden State its first lead of the game. Oubre leveled the scoreboard 108-108 with a layup and another from Draymond Green with 2:40 left, putting the Warriors ahead.

James had a chance to tie at the end, but he missed a triple on the horn and the Lakers snapped their five-game winning streak.

Dennis Schröder was the best in Los Angeles with 25 points, and James made 19. Anthony Davis had 17 points and 17 rebounds.

Eric Paschall came off the bench to score 19 points and Andrew Wiggins added 18 to the Golden State account, which has won 10 of its last 12 games played on Martin Luther King Jr.Day.
