I just watched the first half highlights of this game and I'm comprehending how in the world did the Lakers wound up losing this game? The official box score notes that the Hornets outscored the Lakers 40-58 in the 2nd half. I'm sure it had to do with defensive deficiencies and they just went ice cold in the 2nd half after a hot start in the 1st half. Jordan Clarkson lead the team with 25 points off the bench to go with 3 rebounds and 5 assists, but the Lakers couldn't hold on to the lead, losing to the Hornets in Charlotte 113-117. Lou Williams provided 16 points and Larry Nance Jr. added 10 points off the bench. For the starters, Nick Young lead all scorers with 24 points. D'Angelo Russell followed scoring 15 points to go with 5 rebounds and 5 assists and Luol Deng also followed, chipping in 11 points and 7 rebounds.
Final Score: @ Charlotte 113-117 [L]
