Lakers, Clippers take wins into the break

Anthony Davis had 37 points and 15 rebounds, Rui Hachimura scored a career-high 36 points, and the Lakers beat the Utah Jazz 138-122 on Wednesday night while resting Lebron James.

The team cited an ankle injury for James, who sat out the second game of a back-to-back in the final game before the All-star break. He is set to play in his 20th All-star Game on Sunday in Indianapolis.

Hachimura made a career-best six 3-pointers and topped his previous high of 30 points, which he had reached four times in his five-year career. The Lakers have won six of seven, including four straight on the road.

■ Norman Powell made four 3-pointers over the final 7:03 to score 21 points and outduel Stephen Curry down the stretch, and the Clippers rallied from 12 down in the fourth quarter to beat Golden State, 130-125.

James Harden had 26 points, eight rebounds and seven assists, and Paul George scored 24 points before fouling out on a night the Clippers were missing leading scorer Kawhi Leonard because of a left leg injury.

Curry scored 41 points and became the first player in NBA history to make seven or more 3-pointers in four straight games, shooting 9 for 19 from deep and 15 of 31 overall.

■ Clippers forward P.J. Tucker was fined $75,000 by the NBA for publicly expressing a desire to be traded before last week’s deadline. Tucker, acquired from Philadelphia in the trade for James Harden on Nov. 1, played in just 12 games before falling out the rotation. He has not played since Nov. 27. He was not with the team for Wednesday night’s game in San Francisco.
