LeBron James says the Los Angeles Lakers need more urgency after his comeback ended in a 130-108 defeat by the Boston Celtics.

The NBA great returned after eight games out with an abdominal problem.

He finished with 23 points, six rebounds and two assists - but the Lakers still fell to a ninth defeat in 17 games this season.

Jayson Tatum scored 37 points and had 11 rebounds as the Celtics, 61-60 down after the second quarter, came back.

The 17-time NBA All-Star admitted his frustration after the Lakers were dominated in the third and fourth quarters.

The Detroit Pistons could not take advantage of a Stephen Curry-less Golden State Warriors, who beat the hosts 105-102.
