LeBron James scored 26 points and clashed with Dillon Brooks as the Los Angeles Lakers beat the Phoenix Suns 116-114 on Sunday.

The Lakers were 20 points ahead in the fourth quarter when the Suns fought back to take a one-point lead with 12 seconds remaining after a three-pointer by Brooks.

In a frantic end to the game in Phoenix, Brooks then bumped James, drawing his second technical foul of the night and an ejection.

James, 40, missed the technical free throw but was then fouled by Suns’ Devin Booker on a three-point attempt and made two of three free throws with three seconds left to put the Lakers back ahead.

“It’s the NBA, no boys allowed,” James said of his tangle with Brooks, 29.
