Luka Dončić scored 45 points as the Los Angeles Lakers beat the Toronto Raptors 131-125 on Sunday night, USA Today and the Associated Press report.

Dončić also had a season-high 15 rebounds, six assists and five steals, the AP reports. He made eight 3-pointers. USA Today says he became the first player in NBA history with at least 45 points, 15 rebounds, five assists, five steals and five 3-pointers in one game.

He had 24 points and a career-high five steals in the first half alone, USA Today reports. "Luka doesn't get enough credit for his defense," Lakers center Walker Kessler said.

Austin Reaves scored 19 points, and Kessler had 16 points and 15 rebounds, the AP reports. Scottie Barnes led Toronto with 29 points. The Raptors played without Kawhi Leonard, who missed his fourth straight game with a knee injury.

The Lakers led by 26 points late in the third quarter. But Toronto outscored them 43-27 in the fourth quarter. Raptors reserves scored 11 points in 40 seconds and forced the Lakers to send their starters back in, the AP reports.

The win came after the Lakers blew a 25-point lead in a loss at Golden State on Friday. Dončić has scored at least 37 points in four straight games, according to the AP.

It is not clear whether Dončić will play Monday night against the Miami Heat, USA Today reports. "I got to get rest, a cold tub, a massage," he said after the game.
