The Los Angeles Lakers had to go to overtime Wednesday vs the Indiana Pacers. Enter LeBron James. James sank not one, not two, but three daggers to help put the Pacers away in their 124-116 overtime win.

In the closing seconds of regulation, the Lakers led 112-109. Malcolm Brogdon drove under the basket on LeBron James and kicked the ball out to Chris Duarte in the corner. Duarte, while falling out of bounds, off balance, made a miraculous three point shot that sent the game to overtime.

In overtime though, “The King” went to work. With just under three minutes remaining and the game tied at 114, LeBron sank a triple to give the Lakers the lead. On the other end of the court, James blocked Myles Turner's layup attempt.

Less than a minute later, LeBron James did it again.

Following a bucket from Brogdon cutting the lead to four, James sent everyone home sinking a 19 foot jump shot with the shot clock winding down.

This was James' 395th career game with 30 or more points and five or more assists. That is by far the most in NBA history. Los Angeles is now 4-0 in overtime this season, also the best mark in the league.

The Lakers improved to 10-10 on the young season, but are 6-3 in games LeBron James plays in. They hope this is a sign of things to come as they had dropped four of their previous five games entering Wednesday.
