The Lakers’ wild third quarter on Sunday night in their win over the Nuggets was capped off by a 13-0 run that featured a heavy dose of Lonnie Walker IV. The premier signing of the offseason for the Lakers, Walker has started the season off strong, with his performance against Denver the latest of his bright games.
Walker’s 3-point shooting, like the rest of the team, hasn’t been all that great as he’s shooting 21.9% from the 3-point line. That figure rose on Sunday, though, behind his hot shooting, even if it wasn’t necessarily responsible shooting.
