Lakers vs Warriors final score and top performers

The Lakers won the first quarter 38-15 and the Warriors won the second by the same score, so it was 53-53 at half-time. Golden State took the third 32-27 and the fourth 27-15. The Warriors made 22 of 46 threes to the Lakers' 11 of 39, and their bench outscored the Lakers' 50-7.

• Stephen Curry (Warriors): 31 points (11-of-23, 8-of-14 from three), six assists and four rebounds in 31 minutes.
• Luka Dončić (Lakers): 37 points (12-of-27, 6-of-16 from three), seven rebounds and five assists.

• De'Anthony Melton and Georges Niang (Warriors): 16 and 11 points off the bench.
• Walker Kessler (Lakers): 10 points, 13 rebounds and five blocks.

ESPN's box score charges Lakers players with 20 turnovers. The AP game story says Golden State committed 17, 10 in the first quarter, which the Lakers turned into 25 points.

How the Warriors erased a 25-point deficit

Dončić scored 21 points in the first quarter on 7-of-12 shooting, with five threes, more than the whole Warriors team managed, according to NBA.com. CBS Sports' play-by-play shows the Lakers ahead 40-15 early in the second.

Melton, with 13 first-half points, led the reply. A 16-2 run over the last 3:41 of the half ended with Podziemski's three, assisted by Curry, to tie it with six seconds left. The Lakers went back up 72-63 midway through the third, Sunday Guardian Live noted.

Then the game turned. At 6:22 of the third, Curry's crossover sent Dončić to the floor before he hit a three, AP reported. Golden State closed the quarter on a 22-8 run, and Podziemski's three gave them their first lead since 2-0; On SI's Joey Akeley counted three offensive fouls Podziemski drew in that surge.

The Warriors scored the first 11 points of the fourth, completing an 18-0 run that made it 96-80 with 8:02 left, per NBA.com. Dončić drew a technical foul late in the third amid boos, and Thybulle got one in the fourth. The California Post noted the Lakers scored only 15 points in both the second and fourth quarters.

Records and milestones from the night

Curry passed Dominique Wilkins (26,668 points) for 18th on the NBA's career scoring list in the fourth quarter, AP reported. NBA.com noted that at 38 years and 230 days, he joined LeBron James as the only players aged 38 or older with 30 points, five assists and eight threes in a game. "I just love this game," Curry said afterwards, Sunday Guardian Live reported.

According to AP, it was the largest win in the shot-clock era by a team that trailed by 20 or more after one quarter, beating the Warriors' own 124-110 win over Chicago on March 4, 1976.

It was Golden State's third straight win after an 0-3 start, following Curry's 44 points at Minnesota on Wednesday, as Bleacher Report and NBC Sports Bay Area, via Warriors Central, noted.

Injuries: who played and who sat

Dončić returned after missing Wednesday's 103-87 win over the Clippers with back tightness; our Lakers vs Clippers recap covers that game. On the NBA's 6 a.m. ET report on October 30, the Lakers listed Ziaire Williams as questionable (left foot/heel), with Cameron Carr (right oblique strain) and Adou Thiero (left knee) out, Lakers Daily reported. Warriors Wire later listed Williams as out, and he is not in ESPN's box score.

Golden State were without Jimmy Butler III (right ACL surgery), Moses Moody (left patellar tendon surgery) and Kristaps Porzingis, listed as "not with team", per EssentiallySports. Gui Santos, upgraded to questionable with left knee tendinitis, started and played 16 minutes.

Our take

Based on the box score, the Lakers leaned almost entirely on Dončić after the first quarter. He finished +9 in 37 minutes, while the bench scored seven points and Collin Sexton and Quentin Grimes went a combined 1 of 9. Golden State's 50 bench points may be the more lasting sign. Six games is a small sample, and the January 21 rematch will tell us more.
