Davis and James were a combined 23-for-39 (58.9 percent) from the floor and teamed for 17 boards as Los Angeles avenged Sunday's home loss to Chicago. The Lakers (38-38) won for the fourth time in five games to tie New Orleans for eighth place in the Western Conference.

Despite losing their second straight, the Bulls (36-40) maintained a two-game lead on Washington for the No. 10 seed in the East and the final slot in the conference play-in tournament.

Nikola Vucevic registered a double-double of 29 points and 12 rebounds for Chicago. DeMar DeRozan (22 points), Coby White (17), Zach LaVine (16) and Ayo Dosunmu (12) also finished with double digits. White dished a game-high nine assists.
