LOS ANGELES — \u2014 Luka Doncic<\/a> had 25 points and seven assists, LeBron James<\/a> added 24 points and seven assists, and the Los Angeles Lakers<\/a> returned to form with a 110-93 victory over the Toronto Raptors<\/a> on Sunday night.<\/p>\n

Deandre Ayton<\/a> had 25 points and 13 rebounds in his impressive return from a knee injury for the Lakers, who won for just the second time in seven games while playing their final home game before an eight-game, 15-day road trip.<\/p>\n

Ayton had his highest-scoring performance since Nov. 3 while making all 10 of his shots.<\/p>\n

Doncic also returned with a strong performance after missing Saturday\u2019s loss at Portland<\/a> to rest his nagging injuries, hitting five 3-pointers.<\/p>\n

James played in back-to-back games for the second time this season \u2014 and the second time this week, capably completing a set of five games in seven days for the 41-year-old superstar who had previously been resting for one game in back-to-back sets.<\/p>\n

Scottie Barnes<\/a> had 22 points and nine rebounds for the Raptors, who have lost back-to-back games for the first time in four weeks after the Clippers beat them in Toronto<\/a> on Friday. Sandro Mamukelashvili<\/a> scored 20 points and former Lakers draft pick Brandon Ingram<\/a> added 19 points and seven assists for Toronto, which faded in the fourth quarter in the opener of a five-game road trip.<\/p>\n

Neither team managed a double-digit lead until the Lakers surged ahead 91-80 on back-to-back buckets by James to begin the fourth quarter. Los Angeles took control shortly afterward with nine straight points while holding Toronto scoreless for 3 1\/2 minutes.<\/p>\n

Doncic got his 12th technical foul of the season in the first half for arguing. That’s the second-most in the NBA, trailing only Phoenix’s Dillon Brooks<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Up next <\/p>\n

Raptors: At Golden State on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n

Lakers: At Denver on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n
