Wang Yi came back onto the court and went all out.
Whenever the other side scored, he would answer with the exact same kind of play.

During that stretch, Miyazaki Isamu may have calmed down during halftime, because he stopped provoking Wang Yi.

During the first few minutes of the fourth quarter, he kept finding ways to hurt the Raptors.
Meanwhile, the Raptors' substitutes made several mistakes in a row and missed their shots, cutting the lead to just seven points.
So with nine minutes left in the fourth quarter, Wang Yi went back in.
This time, after returning to the court, he gave the Lakers no more opportunities.

In the end, the Kings crushed the Lakers 127–103.
Once again, the Raptors' substitutes saw their hopes dashed.
Wang Yi himself finished the game with 92 points, 19 rebounds, 11 steals, and 7
