James delivered 21 points (8-19 FG, 2-7 3Pt, 3-5 FT), seven rebounds, five assists and a steal across 37 minutes in Saturday's 104-99 win over the Pelicans.

James was unable to extend his streak of consecutive triple-doubles to five games and was having a relatively down performance early, at least by his recent standards. However, he took over in the fourth quarter when the Lakers needed him most and scored 11 of his 21 points in the final 12 minutes. James' triple-double streak ended in this low-scoring win, but he remains an above-average source of fantasy production even though he's only a few weeks away from turning 40 years old.
