Almost every member of the Los Angeles Lakers disappointed in the team’s season-opening loss to the LA Clippers, but Jordan Clarkson was one of the few exceptions.
The fourth-year guard was the team’s second-leading scorer with 18 points off of the bench, and he did so on relatively efficient 7-16 shooting while racking up 2 assists, 2 steals and 2 blocks as well.
According to Clarkson, it’s exactly the type of production he’s aiming for this season. “I feel like that’s my role coming off the bench. In the time I’m out there, I have to be aggressive, score and make plays,” Clarkson said after the game.
