LeBron James capped off one of the most prolific weeks of his career with a flourish Sunday, scoring 32 points in the Miami Heat's 107-97 home win over the Los Angeles Lakers.

James was 12-of-18 from the floor Sunday, upping his five-game total to 55-of-77. That’s 71.4 percent from the floor. He got his 32 points in all kinds of ways Sunday. He was 7-of-8 from the foul line and 1-of-2 from deep (his one three-pointer was a 29-footer as time expired in the third quarter).

He also did this:

James ended with seven rebounds, four assists and three steals. Dwyane Wade was also 12-of-18 from the floor Sunday; he finished with 30 points, five assists and three steals.

Kobe Bryant had 28 points for the visiting Lakers, and Earl Clark had 18 points in a team-high 42 minutes played.

The teams were tied, 51-51, at halftime, and the Heat's lead never grew too large. Chris Bosh had 12 points and 11 rebounds for the game's only double-double.
