NBA roundup: Lakers charge back for OT win

Kobe Bryant had 34 points and 10 rebounds and Steve Nash finished with 12 points and nine assists in his first game in almost two months because of a lower leg fracture as the visiting Los Angeles Lakers rallied from 14 points down in the fourth quarter to beat Golden State, 118-115, in overtime on Saturday night.

Metta World Peace and Nash each made a go-ahead 3-pointer in the final minutes of regulation before the Warriors came back. World Peace scored 20 points, and Nash converted a step-back shot for the final points in overtime to lift Los Angeles to its fourth straight victory.
