Wednesday’s game between the Los Angeles Lakers and Utah Jazz turned into a thrilling win for the home team.
Despite trailing by double-digits in the second half after Anthony Davis went down with an ankle injury, LeBron James woke up from a sleepy first three quarters and energized everyone in the building with his aggressive play.
James scored over 15 of his 33 points in the fourth quarter to cap off the comeback, including big shots down low and hitting 3-pointers over Rudy Gobert to stun the No. 4 seeded Jazz.
After the game, Jazz head coach Quin Snyder offered high praise for James, calling him the greatest player of all time (h/t: Eric Walden of The Salt Lake Tribune):
Quin Snyder adds that the Jazz really struggled in transition against the Lakers. Also had nothing late for LeBron James, "the greatest player of all time. Some people might dispute that, but that's what I'm calling him."
