LIGHTS • Jordan Clarkson Drops 29 & 10 Dimes Off Bench!

Does Jordan Clarkson deserve a shot in Luke Walton's starting five. If his last few games are any indication, it may be time for a promotion.

LAL's 6th man put in a(nother) dynamic scoring effort on Sunday. This time, however, it featured his all-around floor game & improved playmaking abilities.


29!, 10! DIMES & 6! BOARDS v. NYK

When in control and lookin for the open man, it's tough to corral his attack from midrange in - avg. 31!, 8.5 dimes & 6.5 boards (off bench!) over his last two games. When his minutes are set, his role is less murky - when they aren't shots & consistent production can be sporadic.  

Can he keep it up once the Lakers return both Lonzo Ball & Kentavious Caldwell-Pope to the lineup? 

Correctly utilizing* JC's skill set gives any lineup an extra layer of versatility offensively.

 

*better as 6th man or starter?
