Paul George scored 29 points and Norman Powell added 18 off the bench as the Los Angeles Clippers extended their winning streak over the visiting Los Angeles Lakers to nine games with a 114-101 victory on Wednesday.

Reggie Jackson scored 14 and Luke Kennard had 13 for the Clippers, who last lost to their co-tenant in the final meeting between the teams in the 2019-20 season.

George has scored at least 26 points in six consecutive games.

LeBron James scored 30 points and Anthony Davis added 21 points and nine rebounds as the Lakers lost their fourth consecutive game, one off their five-game losing streak to open the season under new head coach Darvin Ham.

James left the court with less than six minutes remaining due to a left leg injury and did not return. He will be examined by team doctors on Thursday, Ham said.
