Mike Conley had 20 points and Rudy Gobert had a double double with 19 points and 16 rebounds for the Jazz.

Johnson, who was just re-signed to another 10-day contract earlier in the day, scored six consecutive points in the fourth quarter. He tied the game at 83 with a 15-foot pull-up jumper, and he later scored a layup with a nice move around Rudy Gobert to give the Lakers a 89-87 lead.

James had suggested the smaller Lakers lineup attack Gobert and the basket. It worked.

"I’m just trying to put everyone in position to be successful and reading the game while the game was going on and I knew the way we could be successful offensively," James said. "The guys responded well to what I saw and Stanley had a big-time game."

Austin Reaves had a tip-in basket off his own miss to put the Lakers ahead by four and Avery Bradley made a key 3-pointer in the corner, off an assist from Johnson, for a 95-89 lead. Johnson made 7 of 9 shots and also had seven rebounds.
