He played 30 minutes and scored 11 points in the Lakers\u2019 140-129 victory. He added 12 assists and three rebounds to his statline.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/sports\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COM<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The pace tested me, but I was happy with the way I was able to go with the guys,&#8221; James said. &#8220;As the game went on, my wind got a lot better. Caught my second wind, caught my third wind. Rhythm is still coming back, obviously. First game in almost seven months, so everything that happened tonight was to be expected.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The 40-year-old James had been sidelined since the start of training camp and missed 14 games, despite never missing a season opener since he started playing organized basketball.

What\u2019s wrong with these people out here? I can fit in right away with anybody. Just watching the guys the first 14 games, I was putting myself (mentally) in position while I was watching the games of how I could help the team and how I could be successful to help those guys. I\u2019m still able to gain a lot of eyes when I\u2019m driving the ball or have the ball.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Luka Doncic led the Lakers with 37 points on 11-of-22 shooting. He had 10 assists and five rebounds. Austin Reaves contributed 26 points and Deandre Ayton had 20.<\/p>\n<p>Utah fell to 5-9 on the season.<\/p>\n<p>Keyonte George had 34 points on 13-of-23 shooting with eight assists and four rebounds.
