LOS ANGELES — Kobe Bryant scored 13 points on 4-of-20 shooting after declaring he will retire at the end of the season, as the Indiana Pacers hung on to send his Los Angeles Lakers to their sixth consecutive defeat, 107-103 Sunday.

Paul George scored the Pacers’ final 11 points in the last 1:27, finishing with 39 as Indiana opened a four-game West Coast road trip with its fifth straight victory despite blowing all but one point of a 22-point lead.
