Devin Vassell, Stephon Castle and Victor Wembanyama each scored 23 points as the visiting San Antonio Spurs ended a three-game losing streak with a 126-102 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers on Monday in the return to play for both teams.

The Lakers had two home games postponed in the past week, including a game against the Spurs on Saturday, as a safety precaution because of deadly wildfires in the Los Angeles area.

Harrison Barnes scored 17 points and Chris Paul delivered 13 points and 10 assists as the Spurs defeated the Lakers for the first time in three games between the teams this season. San Antonio outscored Los Angeles 73-40 in the second half.

Anthony Davis amassed 30 points and 13 rebounds and LeBron James added 18 points and eight assists as Lakers lost their third consecutive game, all to Texas teams. Los Angeles fell at Houston and at Dallas on its recent road trip.

Austin Reaves scored 12 points and dished out eight assists for Los Angeles, which led by as many as 11 points in the third quarter before falling apart over the final 16 minutes of the game.

The Lakers had an 84-74 lead with 3:57 remaining in the third quarter before the Spurs went on a 10-0 run to tie the score. The game was level 89-89 heading into the fourth.

San Antonio went on a 15-3 run to take command at 109-96 with 6:34 to play in the contest. A Vassell 3-pointer put the Spurs up 114-98 with 4:06 remaining.

The Spurs outscored the Lakers 37-13 in the fourth quarter.

Each team led by as many as seven points in the first quarter before the Spurs grabbed a 28-26 lead at the end of the period.

Los Angeles shot 63.6 percent from the floor in the second quarter to take a 62-53 lead into halftime.

Davis scored 13 points in the first half for the Lakers, while Wembanyama had a game-high 14 at the break for the Spurs.
