The Los Angeles Lakers triumphed over the Golden State Warriors 115-113 on Christmas Day, as Austin Reaves and company were able to spoil a late-game comeback led by Stephen Curry.

After Curry hit two deep threes, the score was tied 113-113 with six seconds left in regulation.

And that was when Reaves, who already had a triple-double, took over and drove to the basket and won it for the Lakers.

As for how it ended, Reaves said the final play call was designed for LeBron and not him.

While walking into the tunnel, Reaves elaborated on what took place.

"Man, I'll be honest with y'all, that last play was not for me, it was for Bron. But I got the opportunity to go win us a game, and that's what ending up happening. That's a big win for the team. Huge win. it's Christmas Day... I'll remember this one for a long time."

During the postgame interviews Reaves, who put up 26 points, 10 rebounds, and 10 assists, noted that the whole moment was surreal for him.

"I'm not really an emotional person," Reaves said. "But when I was doing radio out there... Got the game ball, and threw it to D-Lo, there was a quick second where I thought I might tear up. That doesn't happen a lot. But it's Christmas."

Reaves continued, "I know my parents are back home watching, my brother is probably in Germany right now... All my people back home are locked in and sitting around watching the game."

"That means a lot to me. I say it all the time, I'm not necessarily supposed to be in this position. I got lucky, got my foot in the door, and took advantage of an opportunity. Now, I'm sitting here, on Christmas, with a game-winner and a triple-double. It's really the win that matters the most to me."

In his fourth season, Reaves, 26, is putting up a career-high 17.4 points per game, as the Lakers now improve to a 17-13 record.
