CLEVELAND (AP) — LeBron James was welcomed home like a champion — and played like one.
The NBA star received a rousing ovation in his first game back in Cleveland since leaving as a free agent and rallied the Lakers to a 109-105 win over the Cavaliers.
James finished with 32 points and 14 rebounds as the Lakers rallied from an eight-point deficit in the fourth quarter and won their fourth straight.
Cedi Osman led Cleveland with 21 points.
