Ty Lawson had 21 points, Danilo Gallinari chipped in with 20 and the Denver Nuggets got by the Lakers, 112-105 at Staples Center on Sunday night. 

The Lakers (15-18) have lost three games in a row and four of their last five, and couldn’t win despite a 24 point, 26 rebound effort from center Dwight Howard.

Los Angeles also committed 18 turnovers.

Meanwhile, the Nuggets (20-16) have won five of seven, and got a three-pointer with less than a minute left from Gallinari to silence a Lakers rally. 

Kobe Bryant had 29 points for the Lakers, and hit a couple of late three-pointers to keep the score close, but Andre Miller and Gallinari hit free throws to ice the game.
