Lakers' Jordan Clarkson: Productive in Monday's start

Clarkson posted 19 points (7-18 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 2-3 FT) with three assists and two rebounds across 33 minutes in Monday's 129-101 loss against the Nuggets.

Analysis:

While Clarkson didn't set a career high like he did last time out, he was still rather productive. It's uncertain how long he'll remain in the starting five in place of D'Angelo Russell but whether he is starting or coming off the bench he is seeing a healthy amount of minutes. He has basically moved into the role vacated by the departed Louis Williams.
