The Lakers lost in a heartbreaker, Maxi Kleber swishing a three at the buzzer to beat the Lakers 111-110. Playing the Dallas Mavericks, a team just a single game ahead of them in the standings entering Friday’s game, the Lakers had a chance to make a real move. Three free throws from Kleber (after he was fouled on a three by Davis) made it a one-point game. Davis split two free throws to give the Mavericks a chance to either win or tie. Dallas made 11 more threes than the Lakers, who also missed 14 free throws against just four for the Mavericks.
