Kobe scores 32, fuels Lakers' rally over Kings
Kobe Bryant scored nine of his 32 points in the final 3:14, leading the Lakers' fourth-quarter comeback for a 98-95 victory over Sacramento on Tuesday night.
Carlos Boozer added 15 points as the Lakers snapped their three-game skid by rallying from a 12-point deficit in the second half.
Darren Collison scored 26 points and Rudy Gay had 23 for the Kings, who went scoreless in a 4 1/2-minute stretch. Sacramento managed just 14 points on 5-for-17 shooting in the fourth quarter.
Spurs 96 Jazz 100
That's one reason Utah's 100-96 victory over San Antonio on Tuesday night left a feeling of satisfaction in the Jazz locker room.
Derrick Favors had 21 points and eight rebounds, while Gordon Hayward added 20 points and seven boards to help the Jazz snap a nine-game losing streak.
Tim Duncan had 23 points and 13 rebounds for San Antonio, who lost to the Jazz for the first time in two years. San Antonio played without starting point guard Tony Parker and then lost coach Gregg Popovich to a third-quarter ejection.
