LOS ANGELES (AP)—Kobe Bryant abandoned his one-man show, got his teammates involved and the Los Angeles Lakers prevailed in a shooting contest.

Bryant scored six of his 26 points in overtime and the Lakers beat the Washington Wizards 126-120 Sunday night to snap a two-game losing skid and move within a game of the Western Conference lead.

“We’re doing this without two starters,” Bryant said. “It’s been an adjustment period. I think guys have adjusted well. With all the injuries, we’re still one game behind the top seed in the Western Conference. You got to like our spot.” – Yahoo Sports
