The win was LA's fourth straight and 50th of the season, the third consecutive year the reigning champions have accomplished that feat.

Ahead 61-57 midway through the third, Bryant and Lamar Odom each hit from behind the arc to extend the margin to 10.

Odom's buzzer-beater made it 77-68 in favor of LA heading to the fourth, where the Lakers scored the first seven points to pull away.

Shannon Brown's dunk capped the run for an 84-68 cushion, and the closest the Kings got until the final minute was eight.

Bryant scored 11 of the final 13 points of the first quarter to put the Lakers in front 28-17.

Sacramento quickly answered in the second and went ahead, 37-34, following a pair of buckets from Evans near the midway point.

In the final minute of the half, Bryant threw an alley-oop to Bynum and hit a free throw for a slim 49-48 lead at halftime.
