LeBron James' 10 straight points in fourth pace Lakers' win - ESPN

PHILADELPHIA — A game after he failed to reach 10 points for the first time in 17 years, LeBron James turned back the clock to score 10 straight points in the fourth quarter alone to lift the Los Angeles Lakers to a 112-108 win over the Philadelphia 76ers on Sunday.
