Lakers' Jordan Clarkson: Listed as starting Friday

Clarkson will start at shooting guard in Friday's tilt with the Warriors, Mike Trudell of Lakers.com reports.

Analysis:

With D'Angelo Russell (knee) and Nick Young (toe), Clarkson, the team's starting shooting guard last season, will enter the top unit for the first time in 2016-17. He had already been receiving a sizable workload as the club's sixth man, but should be in store for more minutes and usage Friday due to those aforementioned absences, along with Julius Randle's (hip).
