The Los Angeles Lakers defeated the New Orleans Pelicans 108 - 96 Tuesday at Staples Center . The supposedly tanking Lakers ( 26 - 55 ) have now won five straight games following Tuesday nights 's wire - to - wire performance , as after the home team was losing for majority of the first quarter until Larry Nance hit a three - pointer at the buzzer that put them up 26 - 25 . From that point on , the Lakers never lost the lead and continued to build on the lead until the final buzzer . In what was likely his final game at Staples Center , Metta World Peace led the team in scoring with 18 points on 7 - of - 17 shooting in just 25 minutes . In all , Los Angeles had six different players score in double figures , as they have now scored at least 100 points in seven of their last eight games . The five game winning streak gives them plenty of momentum heading into their season finale against the Warriors on Wednesday . As for the Pelicans ( 33 - 48 ) , they 've been trending in the complete opposite direction and Tuesday 's performance was yet another example , as the loss was the team 's fifth straight . This is the second straight game they have played without both DeMarcus Cousins and Anthony Davis , and New Orleans has missed their production immensely . However , in their absence Tuesday , rookie Cheick Diallo emerged off the bench for a game - high 19 points and 11 rebounds in 27 points for what was his second double - double of the season . Jrue Holiday and Alexis Ajinca each added 14 points , but in the end , the Pelicans lacked the necessary star power to overcome the streaking Lakers . New Orleans will have one last opportunity Wednesday to end their losing streak when they take on the Trail Blazers in Portland .
