    The Lakers have beaten the defending champions without their leader

    The Lakers have beaten the defending champions without their leader


    The Los Angeles side have smashed the Golden State Warriors 127-101 in their NBA Christmas Day match.

    They had to do much of it without LeBron James, who left the court in the third quarter with a groin injury.

    Earlier the Boston Celtics beat the Philadelphia 76ers 121-114 in overtime, off the back of 40 points and 10 rebounds from guard Kyrie Irving.
