  "account": "MILWAUKEE (AP) — Luka Doncic led the Los Angeles Lakers to a 123-112 victory over the Milwaukee Bucks, extending their winning streak to seven consecutive games. Doncic tallied 32 points, while Sandro Mamukelashvili contributed 23 points and Austin Reaves added 18 points for Los Angeles.\n\nMamukelashvili, a second-round draft pick of the Bucks in 2021, recorded a season-high scoring performance, matching a mark set the previous night in Atlanta. Reaves returned to action following illness that prevented him from playing in Monday's game.\n\nTyler Herro, Milwaukee's season-scoring leader, returned from a knee injury to record 25 points and seven assists, but missed his first game of the season. Jaime Jaquez Jr. scored a season-high 23 points for the Bucks, who fell to 1-11.\n\nThe Bucks took an early lead, but the Lakers quickly responded with a 9-0 run to seize control. Los Angeles pushed the lead to as many as nine before Milwaukee staged a comeback within 30-28 in the first quarter. Doncic scored 16 points in the opening quarter.\n\nThe Lakers extended their half-time advantage to 61-50, after Milwaukee battled back to within 30-28 in the period. Doncic's scoring dropped to three points in the quarter. Mamukelashvili and Reaves each scored 15 points in the first half.\n\nThe Lakers widened their lead in the third quarter, outscoring the Bucks 33-23. Milwaukee committed 19 turnovers, which enabled Los Angeles to score 28 points off those mistakes.",
