The Los Angeles Lakers saw a 14-point fourth-quarter lead evaporate last night, eventually going to overtime against the Charlotte Hornets. However, despite not having LeBron James in the lineup, Anthony Davis and Carmelo Anthony combined to score 61 points to save the day as LA won 126-123.

Following the game, the three-time Super Bowl champion and Pro Football Hall of Famer, Shannon Sharpe, talked about the Lakers’ OT win over the Hornets: “We should’ve had Carmelo Anthony 3 years ago if he’s going to shoot like this. He was sensational. The Lakers needed this win bad, considering they’ve blown 2 big leads.”
