Julius Randle set a rigid screen. Jordan Clarkson used it to attack. The Lakers scored.
And they scored. And they scored. And they scored. And they scored.
The Lakers knew Charlotte had no answer for the Clarkson-Randle pick-and-roll, so they just kept going back to it. In fact, that connection netted five baskets during a 26-8 fourth quarter run that won the game.
Clarkson scored 14 of his team-high 22 points in that final period, leading the Lakers to a 110-99 win over the Hornets.
“JC had maybe the best all-around quarter I’ve seen him play,” coach Luke Walton said.
