LeBron shines as Lakers rout Wizards
At a glance
WASHINGTON (AP) — LeBron James had 24 points and 11 assists before resting for the final quarter of the Los Angeles Lakers' 134-96 rout of the Washington Wizards on Thursday night, Jan. 30.

While James sat out, his son Bronny played the whole fourth quarter and scored a career-high five points — a development that delighted the crowd, even on the road.
It was the 16th consecutive loss for Washington, tying a franchise record. It's the second time this season the Wizards have dropped that many in a row.
This one was never close after the first few minutes, even though the Lakers were missing Anthony Davis because of an abdominal muscle strain. Washington was without rookie Alex Sarr, who had a sprained left ankle.
Los Angeles has won five of six, rebounding from a 14-point loss at Philadelphia on Tuesday night.
This was the Lakers' most lopsided victory this season, surpassing their 111-88 win over the Wizards just over a week ago.
With the Lakers up by 39 and 1:25 remaining, Los Angeles rookie Dalton Knecht was called for two technical fouls — apparently for arguing — and ejected.
Jordan Poole led the Wizards with 19 points.
Darius Garland scored 26 points and Evan Mobley had 16 points and 10 rebounds after both were named All-Star reserves, helping the NBA-leading Cleveland Cavaliers to a 137-115 win over the Atlanta Hawks.
Donovan Mitchell scored 24 points and Ty Jerome added 20 points off the bench for Cleveland (39-9), which has the best home record in the league at 23-3. Jarrett Allen had nine points and 15 rebounds.
Hawks rookie Zaccharie Risacher, the No. 1 overall draft pick, scored 30 points and De’Andre Hunter had 25 points and made all 12 of his free throws. Atlanta has lost a season-high seven straight.
Cleveland built a 29-point lead in beating the Hawks for the first time in three games this season. Atlanta won the first two meetings by a combined 27 points on Nov. 27 and Nov. 29.
Elsewhere, Scoot Henderson had 23 points, seven assists and five rebounds in the Portland Trail Blazers' 119-90 victory over the Orlando Magic.
Shaedon Sharpe also had 23 points and Deandre Ayton added 22 points and eight rebounds to help Portland win for the sixth time in seven games.
Franz Wagner led Orlando with 24 points. Paolo Banchero had 21.
Portland outscored Orlando 21-5 in fast break points and had a 12-5 edge in 3-pointers.
The Trail Blazers pushed their lead to 16 on Henderson's layup with 8:26 left in the third. The onslaught continued, with Portland up by 25 points in the quarter.
