In a loss to Washington Wizards the following day, the King put up 34 points. Two days later in Indiana, LeBron finished with a season-high 40 points (including 22 points on 8-11 from the field in the first half) and followed that performance with a 32 point, 7 rebound, and 9 assist contest back home against the 76ers.
