Laker Game Quick Recaps (Post-WrestleMania): Lost to Brooklyn, Won in OT vs. Sixers

If you guys follow my Instagram account, @mechg2994, the reason why these posts are here just now because I attended WrestleMania at Levi's Stadium this past weekend (I mean, I'm close to the stadium so better to cash in on a once in a lifetime opportunity). So I'm here now, playing catch up once again. Instead of posting separate posts on both games, why not I post them simultaneously? Makes it much easier for myself. Kill two birds with one stone.

03/29: @ BKN 99-107 [L]

Highlights:

Jordan Hill was the Lakers' top performer, contributing big off the bench with a double-double of 22 points and 16 rebounds, but the Lakers came up short against the Nets in Brooklyn, losing 99-107. Jordan Clarkson added 18 points, Wesley Johnson added 17 points, and Wayne Ellington chipped in 13 points to round out the starters. Jabari Brown was a 2nd contributor off the bench, chipping in 11 points, but finished 4-14 shooting from the field.

03/30: @ Philadelphia 103-101 (OT) [W]

Highlights:

In the battle of the NBA's worst, the Lakers stood tall again (as it should be or else it would've been embarrassing although that costs us a draft position). Jordan Clarkson continues his magical rookie year in a dark season for the Purple and Gold as he was the team's top performer with a double-double of 26 points and 11 assists and hitting a game winner as he lifted the Lakers past the Sixers 103-101 in OT. A great showing for the back court without Jeremy Lin as Wayne Ellington added 20 points and Jabari Brown came off the bench with a season high 22 points. Wesley Johnson also added a double-double of 12 points and 11 rebounds and Ryan Kelly chipped in 16 points to round out the starters.
