James had 19 points, 10 rebounds and a season-high 16 assists in his third triple-double this season and the 115th of his Hall-of-Fame career.

Six players scored in double figures for Los Angeles, which remains undefeated at home (5-0).

Toronto led 55-53 at the half.

The Lakers outscored the Raptors 70-48 in the second half to secure a nine-day season sweep of Canada's beloved basketball team.

Davis, who entered as the NBA's scoring leader, was ruled out and will see an eye specialist as a precautionary measure.
