Bryant leads Lakers to 111-103 Win over Nuggets

Denver_NuggetsDENVER (AP) — Kobe Bryant had 23 points, 11 assists and 11 rebounds for his 21st career triple-double, and the Los Angeles Lakers held off the Denver Nuggets 111-103 Tuesday night to end a three-game losing streak.

Bryant shot 6 of 11 from the floor, giving him 25,000 field goal attempts for his career. The only players who’ve attempted more shots in NBA history are Kareem Abdul-Jabbar (28,307) and Karl Malone (26,210), according to STATS.

The Lakers star played nearly 32 minutes in his second game back. He missed three games around Christmas because of overall soreness.

Carlos Boozer had 19 points and Ronnie Price added a season-high 18.

Ty Lawson and Jusuf Nurkic both finished with 16 points for the Nuggets, who have lost four of five.
